DIY-EV

The project is to build a DIY EV from scratch. Idea is to have a four-wheeled skid-steered small electric vehicle with sufficient load bearing / load pulling capacity. I will provide costs for all components used in the project.

What will the final product look like? Some thing like this -->

What are the components used?

12V Brushed DC Motor + Planetary gears (2x) -- 118RPM
12V Brushed DC Motor + Planetary gears + encoders (2x) -- 118RPM
4" / 10cm plastic wheels + rubber tires (4x)
Arduino mini - 1
10A Dual motor controller (30A Peak draw) - 1
All nuts / bolts and screws were purchased from Home Depot (all screws were 6-32, and either 1" or 3/4").

I used a handheld vice drill (Amazon - ~25CAD) for drilling holes into nylon board.
