Switched reluctance motor (SRM) and induction motor (IM) technologies are studied based on specific ASEAN Bangkok and Hanoi driving cycles. Range simulations and thermal analyses have been performed on standard driving cycles: ECE15 and WMTC Part 1 as well as ASEAN cycles: Bangkok driving cycle and Hanoi motorcycle driving cycles. The e‐scooter ranges vary from 44 to 99 km depending on driving cycle, motor technology, and number of passengers. Finally, prototypes of both motors are manufactured and tested on a high‐speed test bench. Some experimental results are reported in this paper. As a conclusion, despite differences in terms of performances, cost, and range, both drive systems are, however, suitable for electric scooter application. © 2020 Institute of Electrical Engineers of Japan.
