$1.$ Design a passenger vehicle to attain a maximum velocity $($V$)$ of $180$ km$/$h on a level asphalt road for:

A$.$ For Rear wheel drive

Note: Important 'design data' and other 'relevant information' can be taken from 'Design Handbooks'

Task $1$: Acceleration performance

Determine the maximum Power required at the driving wheels $($Pm$).$

Determine or decide the maximum power, torque and speed of the engine required

Determine transmission gear ratio for $1$ and top gear and final drive gear ratio. $($Assume the maximum grade of $33)$

Determine the maximum tractive effort that the tire$-$ground contact can support

Plot the expected acceleration performance

Task $2$: Braking performance

Estimate braking proportion required

Which set of tire locks first?

Determine stopping time and distance from maximum vehicle velocity

Task $3$: Steady$-$state Handling Characteristics

Determine the steady$-$state handling behavior of the vehicle.

Estimate the Lateral acceleration gain and Yaw velocity gain at maximum velocit
