Important announcement

Dear visitor,

Please note that this OpenCourseWare platform will be replaced at the end of 2026 by a new platform (under the same url ocw.tudelft.nl).

Courses and their contents that are currently available the platform will partly be migrated. URL’s for this content will change and content might be unavailable for some time. In addition, some courses will not be available anymore.

If you are linking to specific courses on this platform (for instance for your students), please take timely measures to avoid problems with access. Possible actions are:

  • Download the materials to your local platform (laptop, server)
  • For educators only (including TU Delft lecturers): Contact us at ocw@tudelft.nl and inform us what course you are using in what context (institute, program, period of use, number of students). We will research (in collaboration with the authors of the course) and decide if we will migrate the course, and if yes, can supply you with a new url.

Thank you.

1.6.1 Case study: Carver Electric Vehicle

Course subject(s) Module 1. How does an EV work?

Now that we have learned about the motor, drivetrain and energy storage of an EV, let us look at how these concepts are used in the real world. For this, we have a case study with Chris van den Brink, technical director of Carver (https://carver.earth/en).

Carver is a Dutch manufacturer of sustainable mobility solutions to travel faster, smarter and more sustainably from door to door. The electric Carver is designed as a sustainable transport alternative for commuters and urban professionals. An innovative, compact city vehicle as a solution for the jammed traffic in and around cities. The Carver is equipped with a unique tilting technology that unites the advantages of a car and a scooter in spectacular new driving experience.

In the next video, we will see Chris van den Brink introduce this company, and how they created the idea of Carver.
