Climate change, Green House Gases (GHG) and global warming are well-known terms in the world today. Global research efforts are focused towards increasing efficiency and reducing GHG emissions from various emitters to deal with climate change. Since the transportation sector accounts for a large share of global GHG emissions it is justifiable that curbing global warming should transpire in this sector. Worldwide there are large number of research taking place in the electrification of transportation sector and autonomous vehicles. In the footsteps of this global trend towards electrification, autonomous driving and automation of the transportation sector, a research to convert an existing internal combustion engine car to an electric car and implementation of few features found in SAE level 1 autonomous vehicles are explored through this project. These features include controlling vehicles remotely, collision detection, parking assistance, etc.
