2023: Electric Quad Announcement
On March 29, 2023, the team of the Moscow Polytechnic University presented an ATV electrified for the Russian manufacturer of cycling equipment Stels.
As reported, the electroquadrocycle can be used for cross-country travel. It is quite quiet and does not pollute the air when working. The developers plan to conduct a number of joint tests to check traction characteristics, tightness and range.
ATVs are a technique for off-road and hard-to-reach places. Such transport a facility has traction characteristics. The main task in the process electrification was to maintain the initial characteristics, such as all-wheel drive, rear-wheel drive and differential lock.
As of March 2023, only Chinese models are presented on the Russian market of electric quadrocycles. Such vehicles are mostly low-powered and lack all-wheel drive. Motor vehicles with similar characteristics will not be able to cope with off-road, which greatly narrows the possibilities of its operation. The engineers developed a gearbox with increased and reduced gear and automated gear shifting using a linear actuator. This made it possible to create an electric quadrocycle, not inferior in capabilities to its progenitor gasoline Stels Guepard.
 | Moscow Polytech is a participant in the Priority 2030 program of the national project "Science and Universities." One of the main tasks of the university is the revival of the engineering and scientific school of automotive industry. We are focused on creating products that people are used to. At the same time, we objectively look at this task and are engaged in its implementation together with our industrial partners. noted Vladimir Miklushevsky, rector of the Moscow Polytechnic |  |
25 people worked on the project, 80% of them were students of the Moscow Polytechnic. The children study at various faculties, including Transport, Mechanical Engineering, Urban and Urban Economy, Chemical Technology and Biotechnology, Economics and Management.
The ATV is lighter than its gasoline predecessor, the curb weight is 466.5 kg, dimensions 2344 * 1300 * 1550 mm. The maximum speed on increased and reduced gears is 65 km/h and 30 km/h.
The gearbox body was manufactured using 3D printing technology with alloy RS-320 together with RUSAL. This is an alloy of the silumin type: the composition includes aluminum doped with silicon, magnesium and copper.
