In this paper, various motors for electric vehicles (EVs) are briefly reviewed. Then the development of doubly salient permanent magnet (DSPM) motors is presented, with emphasis on design and operation, torque production, comparison of pole numbers and discussion of operating modes. An 8/6-pole DSPM motor is designed and built for exemplification. Experimental results of the prototype are given to verify the theoretical analysis, hence confirming that DSPM motors are attractive for modern EVs.
