Modernization consists of a new compact drive unit for the Citröen Berlingo Electrique electric vehicle. The drive unit integrates a power converter for the traction motor, a DC/DC low voltage converter, an on board charger and an electronic control unit (ECU). The new aircooled power converter is lightweight and more efficient due to a modern equipment used. The new ECU uses controller area network (CAN) to communicate with the power converters and also collects all the measured data that can be transferred in real-time during drive. This vehicle also currently provides a test and measurement platform for Master’s Degree students.
