Despite this, its range and purchase cost are the main factors limiting the use ofelectric vehicles in these applications.Range and purchase cost of an electric vehicles are mainly related to the energy storagesystem. Therefore, the optimum size of the battery pack should be considered as the designgoal of a vehicle when its application is known.This paper presents a methodology to optimize the battery pack of an electric vehicleaccording to a given route run in a target time. Therefore, it would be applicable to deliveryvehicles, buses and any vehicle whose route and travel time are known in advance. Theproposed methodology allows minimizing the energy consumption by determining theoptimal powertrain ratio for a given track, setting the travel time as an objective. A fullvehicle model and a multi-objective genetic algorithms are used for this matter. PB Universidad de Burgos.
