Abstract
Recently, development and the spread of small, lightweight, environmentally-friendly and high-efficiency single-seat fuel cell electric vehicle are expected. Then, in order to realize this concept, we designed and manufactured for ULFCV (Ultra Lightweight Fuel Cell Electric Concept Vehicle) applying the development technology of competition vehicle. In this paper, to realize more practicability, we considered the power system and the body of the ULFCV. Then we selected best available fuel cell and capacitor and battery. On the other hand, we improved mass production type ULFCV to use in a car sharing system. We tried to reflect users' opinions to the body design. Next, we simulated the ULFCV strength by FEM analysis for the purpose of confirming its safety.
