Warrison Motors
Warrison Motors is a start-up by two DTU alumni. They had a dream to be the
catalyst to a significant change throughout the world, and thus they got
together to form Warrison Motors in 2021. They wish to be the leader in the
production of electric bikes in India. The main goal of this company is to
produce a one of its kind electric bikes, specifically an electric cruiser bike.
Warrison is a start-up, and they hire people who like to go beyond the typical
call of duty and think out of the box. Themselves being highly passionate,
intelligent, creative and hard-working – they expect and appreciate their
employees to follow suit. Constant and continuous objective feedback from
the recruiter and other team members is given throughout, and they
encourage me to ask for and provide feedback at every possible opportunity.
They believed it was the only way everyone could continuously push
themselves to do better
The current running project was majorly focussed on the design,
manufacturing and research work based on the development and marketing of
an electric cruiser bike. I had the great opportunity to be directly involved in all
processes of this novel project.
I was hired as a design engineering intern. My responsibilities included the
below-mentioned tasks: -
 Design on Solidworks
 Modelling on Alias
 Renders on Keyshot
 Understand and work on all steps in manufacturing an e-motorcycle
 Coordinate with the manufacturer and the supervisor
 Assist in wiring and harness assembly
 Patent work assistance
 Documentation
 Research-based work

Project Overview
E.V.
An electric vehicle (E.V.) is a vehicle that uses electric motors for propulsion. It
can be powered autonomously by a battery (sometimes charged by solar
panels or converting fuel to electricity using fuel cells or a generator). E.V.s
include, but are not limited to, road and rail vehicles, surface and underwater
vessels, electric aircraft and electric spacecraft.

E.V.s first came into existence in the mid-19th century, when electricity was
among the preferred methods for motor vehicle propulsion, providing a level
of comfort and ease of operation that could not be achieved by the gasoline
cars of the time. In the 21st century, E.V.s has seen a resurgence due to
technological developments and an increased focus on renewable energy and
the potential reduction of transportation's impact on climate change and other
environmental issues. 
Most electric vehicles use lithium-ion batteries. Lithium-ion batteries have a
higher energy density, longer life span and higher power density than most
practical batteries. Complicating factors include safety, durability, thermal
breakdown and cost. Li-ion batteries should be used within a safe temperature
and voltage ranges in order to operate safely and efficiently.
In the past, nickel-metal hydride battery batteries were used in some electric
cars, such as those made by General Motors. These battery types are
considered outdated due to their tendencies to self-discharge in the
heat. These factors, coupled with their high cost, has led to lithium-ion
batteries leading as the predominant battery for E.V.s. The prices of lithium-ion
batteries are constantly decreasing, contributing to a reduction in the price of
electric vehicles.

The power of a vehicle's electric motor, as in
other machines, is measured in kilowatts
(kW). Electric motors can deliver their
maximum torque over a wide RPM range.
This means that the performance of a
vehicle with an electric motor exceeds that
of a vehicle with an internal combustion
engine.
For electric trains, forklift trucks, and some
electric cars, D.C. motors are often used. In
some cases, universal motors are used, and
Figure 1 Hub Motor then A.C. or D.C. may be employed. In
recent production vehicles, various motor types have been implemented; for
instance, induction motors within Tesla Motor vehicles and permanent magnet
machines in the Nissan Leaf and Chevrolet Bolt.

Figure 2 Various Li-Ion batteries

BEV - All-electric vehicles (E.V.s), also referred to as battery electric vehicles,


use a battery pack to store the electrical energy that powers the motor. E.V.
batteries are charged by plugging the vehicle into an electric power source.
Although electricity production may contribute to air pollution, the U.S.
Environmental Protection Agency categorises all-electric vehicles as zero-
emission vehicles because they produce no direct exhaust or
tailpipe emissions.

6|Page
Driving Range - Today's E.V.s generally have a shorter range (per charge) than
comparable conventional vehicles have (per tank of gas). However, the
increasing range of new models and the continued development of high-
powered charging equipment is reducing this gap. The efficiency and driving
range of E.V.s vary substantially based on driving conditions. Extreme outside
temperatures tend to reduce range because more energy must be used to heat
or cool the cabin. E.V.s are more efficient under city driving than highway
travel. City driving conditions have more frequent stops, which maximise the
benefits of regenerative braking, while highway travel typically requires more
energy to overcome the increased drag at higher speeds. Compared with
gradual acceleration, rapid acceleration reduces vehicle range. Hauling heavy
loads or driving up significant inclines also has the potential to reduce range.
HEV

Today's hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs) are powered by an internal combustion


engine in combination with one or more electric motors that use energy stored
in batteries. HEVs combine the benefits of high fuel economy and low tailpipe
emissions with the power and range of conventional vehicles.

A wide variety of HEV models are currently available. Although HEVs are often
more expensive than similar conventional vehicles, some costs may be
recovered through fuel savings or state incentives. Compare HEV and non-
hybrid models side by side using the "Can a Hybrid Save Me Money?" tool on
FuelEconomy.gov. The tool compares the costs of a selected HEV with a
comparably equipped non-hybrid model from the same manufacturer and
provides fuel cost savings associated with the HEV option.

In an HEV, the extra power provided by the electric motor may allow for a
smaller combustion engine. The battery can also power auxiliary loads and
reduce engine idling when the vehicle is stopped. Together, these features
result in better fuel economy without sacrificing performance.

Regenerative Braking - An HEV cannot plug into off-board sources of electricity


to charge the battery. Instead, the vehicle uses regenerative braking and the
internal combustion engine to charge. The vehicle captures energy usually lost
during braking by using the electric motor as a generator and storing the
captured energy in the battery. There are different ways to combine the power
from the electric motor and the engine. Parallel hybrids—the most common
HEV design—connect the engine and the electric motor to the wheels through
mechanical coupling. Both the electric motor and the internal combustion
engine drive the wheels directly. Series hybrids, which use only the electric

7|Page
motor to drive the wheels, are more commonly found in plug-in hybrid electric
vehicles.
PHEV
Plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs) use batteries to power an electric
motor, as well as another fuel, such as gasoline or diesel, to power an internal
combustion engine or another propulsion source. PHEVs can charge their
batteries through charging equipment and regenerative braking. Using
electricity from the grid to run the vehicle some or all of the time reduces
operating costs and fuel use relative to conventional vehicles. PHEVs may also
produce lower levels of emissions, depending on the electricity source and
how often the vehicle is operated in all-electric mode.

There are several light-duty PHEVs commercially available, and medium-duty


vehicles are now entering the market. Medium- and heavy-duty vehicles can
also be converted to PHEVs. Although PHEVs are generally more expensive
than similar conventional and hybrid vehicles, some costs can be recovered
through fuel savings, a federal tax credit, or state incentives. PHEVs have an
internal combustion engine and an electric motor, which uses energy stored
in batteries. PHEVs generally have larger battery packs than hybrid electric
vehicles. This makes it possible to drive moderate distances using just
electricity (about 15 to 60-plus miles in current models), commonly referred to
as the "electric range" of the vehicle.

During urban driving, most of a PHEV's power can come from stored electricity.
The internal combustion engine powers the vehicle when the battery is mainly
depleted, during rapid acceleration, or when intensive heating or air
conditioning loads are present.

Fuelling and Driving Options - PHEV batteries can be charged by an outside


electric power source, by the internal combustion engine, or through
regenerative braking. During braking, the electric motor acts as a generator,
using the energy to charge the battery, thereby recapturing energy that would
have been lost. Learn more about charging PHEVs.
PHEV fuel consumption depends on the distance driven between battery
charges. For example, if the vehicle is never plugged in to charge, fuel economy
will be about the same as a similarly sized hybrid electric vehicle. If the vehicle
is driven a shorter distance than its all-electric range and plugged in to charge
between trips, it may be possible to use only electric power. Therefore,
consistently charging the vehicle is the best way to maximise the electric
benefits.

Cruiser bikes

A motorcycle often called a motorbike, bike, or cycle, is a two-or three-


wheeled motor vehicle. Motorcycle design varies greatly to suit a range of
different purposes: long-distance travel, commuting, cruising, sport (including
racing), and off-road riding. Motorcycling is riding a motorcycle and being
involved in other related social activities such as joining a motorcycle club and
attending motorcycle rallies.
In 2014, the three top motorcycle producers globally by volume
were Honda (28%), Yamaha (17%) (both from Japan), and Hero
MotoCorp (India). In developing countries, motorcycles are considered
utilitarian due to lower prices and more excellent fuel economy. Of all the
motorcycles in the world, 58% are in the Asia-Pacific and Southern and Eastern
Asia regions, excluding car-centric Japan.

Figure 3 Indian Scout Bobber Cruiser bike

A cruiser bike is a type of motorcycle which falls under the premium


motorcycle segment. So, generally, most of the cruisers around the world cost
more than regular commuter bikes. Traditionally, cruiser bikes have low seat-
height with better seat cushions. The cruisers have a few extended categories,
such as the tourers and choppers. In these bikes, the riding position allows the
rider's feet to stretch up to the front, and the hands straighten up. Thus, it
places the spine in the near upright position or slightly leaning it back. Thus, it
might just give the feeling of sitting on a reclining chair while riding some of
the cruisers. These bikes feature high and wide handlebars, which provide a
unique riding posture different from any other motorcycle. This helps in getting
a better view of the road and more comfort to the rider. Additionally, the
footpegs are placed at the front, near the engine, and away from the rider's
body. Thus, it provides a better sitting position. So, the cruiser offers relaxed

9|Page
and long hours of fatigue-free riding. With good riding posture, there is less
strain on the rider's body and muscles.
The cruisers are more comfortable than the commuter bikes at slow to
medium speeds. However, riding for long periods at high speeds can cause
exhaustion and restlessness. Pulling back the handlebars causes resistance by
the wind force against the rider's chest. Besides, the cornering ability in
cruisers is limited because of low ground clearance.
The cruiser bikes are the ones which most people use for the long-distance
commute ranging from 200 km to 500 km or so in a day. So, depending upon
the travelling distance, the manufacturers offer different engine capacities for
cruisers. Thus, some of the entry-level cruisers are those with engine capacities
of sub-200cc and power output up to 20 bhp. However, the mid-level cruiser
motorcycles offer engine sizes between 200-600cc which offer more power.
Some high-end cruisers offer even higher engine capacity, up to 1200cc. These
luxury cruisers deliver a power output of up to 80 bhp.
Advantages
Generally, the premium cruiser bikes have higher power & torque, trendy
colours, and attractive design/style. The cruiser bikes are comfortable to ride a
moderate distance. Hence, cruiser bikes are more prevalent in developed
countries such as the USA, Canada, and Australia. However, they are not much
popular in developing countries mainly because of the cost factor. Some of the
premium cruiser bike manufacturers include Harley Davidson, Indian, BMW,
Honda, Yamaha, and Triumph.
Nowadays, these bikes are also getting some attention in developing countries
as well. There are a few entry-level cruiser bikes in these countries. Some of
them are the Royal Enfield models Bullet Classic and Thunderbird. Bajaj
Avenger and U.M. Renegade are also popular cruisers from India and the USA,
respectively.
In short, the cruiser bikes travel a moderate distance without any hassles. They
offer great comfort and convenience. However, they are difficult while
negotiating the stop-and-go urban traffic due to their bigger size. So, they are
ideal mainly for inter-city travel. Some premium cruiser bikes offer better
suspension, safety, and other equipment that suits long-distance travel. Hence,
these bikes are pretty expensive.
A cruiser is a motorcycle in the style of American machines from the 1930s to
the early 1960s, including those made by Harley-
Davidson, Indian, Excelsior and Henderson. The riding position usually places
the feet forward and the hands up, with the spine erect or leaning back

10 | P a g e
slightly. Typical cruiser engines emphasise easy rideability and shifting, with
plenty of low-end torque but not necessarily large amounts of horsepower,
traditionally V-twins but inline engines have become more common. Cruisers
with more outstanding performance than usual, including more horsepower,
stronger brakes and better suspension, are often called power cruisers.

Harley-Davidsons and other cruisers with extensive luggage for touring have
been called, sometimes disparagingly or jocularly, baggers, or full baggers, as
well as dressers, full dressers, or full-dress tourers. These terms are no longer
limited to cruisers, but may be any touring motorcycle.
Cruisers are often the basis for custom motorcycle projects that result in a bike
modified to suit the owner's ideals, and as such, are a source of pride and
accomplishment. Power cruiser is a name used to distinguish bikes in the
cruiser class that have higher levels of power. They often come with upgraded
brakes and suspensions, better ground clearance, and premium surface
finishes, as well as more exotic or modern muscular (non-traditional cruiser)
styling.
Royal Enfield, Jawa, Honda, Harley Davidson, Bajaj, Suzuki, Kawasaki, Triumph,
Ducati, BMW and Indian chief are some of the most common cruisers to be
found on Indian roads.

Electric bike

Electric motorcycles work on stored electricity. As they do not need


combustion engines to run, they are free from noise and vibration—no roar of
exhaust, transmission, noises. By riding them on empty roads, the only things
you will hear are the music in your head. The new-generation electric bikes are
equipped with fantastic features like instant acceleration and great break-
horse-power. Such features are not limited to speed; you can race it up just
like a fuel bike. Electric motorbikes are free from gears, meaning the riders can
enjoy rides without shifting gears. You will say goodbye to all that annoyance
of changing gear during signals, traffic and crowded streets.
Freedom from maintenance- Lack of fuel combustion engines frees the electric
bike riders from many expenses such as changing engine oil, clutch, time belts
and spark plugs. There will be no more adjusting valve clearance, lubricating
choke cables and checking the clutch fluid.
No more petrol stations - Electric bikes run on storage batteries. You can
charge them overnight as they take around 6 to 8 hours to charge from flat to
full. You will never be worrying about crowded petrol stations as you won't
need them anymore.
Too expensive, but for now - Yes, currently, the electric motorcycles are quite
expensive compared to fuel bikes. However, it is expected that their prices will
lower in the future with their rising popularity and need. Moreover, many
countries across the globe are offering exemptions on tax, tolls as well as
providing subsidies on their purchase. Electric motorcycles seem like a very
promising option for bigger problems like global warming and degraded air
quality due to pollution. Many two-wheeler companies are offering good deals
on two-wheeler insurance for electric motorcycles. Soon, there will be many
plans available for two-wheeler insurance online.

Warrison: covering the market gap

Figure 4 CAD model of prototype 1

The Indian electrical vehicle market is predominantly four-wheelers and


scooters. There are rarely any successful electric bikes in India with the
exception of Revolt and Okinawa. These manufacturers, too only cater to the
short-range city needs and not the long-range cruisers segment. Their
motorcycles have a maximum range of 100-150 kilometres and thus have small
battery packs. No major bike manufacturer has its footing in the short- or long-
range electric bike sector. And thus, the presence of any kind of long-range
electric two-wheeler vehicle is non-existent, and here is how Warrison bridges
the gap present in the market. If we look at the market trends, there has been
a great shift in interest from conventional vehicles towards electric-powered
vehicles; people have become open to accepting battery vehicles now more
than ever. The curiosity of the average buyer towards E.V.s has increased, and
seeing the incentives that they provide the number of such vehicles on the
Indian roads have increased exponentially.
Warrison has created a one of a kind and first in segment electric-powered
cruiser motorcycle. It boasts of having the best of both worlds by inculcating
the essence of high class and luxury from the cruiser bike segment and
features and environment friendliness from the class of electric vehicles. The
Warrison e-motorcycle has a large battery pack and highly efficient motor
which can last you up to 400km, a feat that hasn't even been accomplished by
the four-wheeler vehicle manufacturers.

Internship experience: responsibilities and skills
learned
My time at Warrison was went by really quick and was really fun and filled with
knowledge. The internship exposed me to various aspects of design as well as a
lot of steps that go into the manufacturing of a bike. My role was as a Design
engineer apprentice, perfectly fit for me since I'm from automotive, and thus I
fit in and got used to the tasks quickly. I found the internship opportunity from
one of the many online internship sites; the requirements were all part of my
forte, and I fit the applicant description well.
The team was working on the early stages of Prototype 1 when I joined, the
procurement of materials and finding workshops for handiworks had been
finalised. This model of the bike was to be used for testing and forming a base
for the next iteration to be built on. It had rudimentary body panels, and the
chassis was used of an old Royal Enfield Classic. The auxiliary systems had all
been scrapped off and only the chassis, suspension, and wheels remained.
To start with a little about motorcycle designing - Because mechanical
components or even exposed engines are so crucial in motorcycle style,
designers are nearly always more sensitive to and informed of engineering
than normal automobile designers. Large teams of expert engineers and
specialists work on each project development in OEM settings, allowing the
designer to focus on more intangible or subjective parts of the design, such as
styling, human-machine interaction psychology, and market and cultural links.
In other areas, such as pure mechanical ergonomics (seat height, handlebar
placement, and so on) or basic layout (position of major components, storage,
and so on), there is usually a consensus. The designer will ostensibly approach
each problem from the perspective of a user interface, or "The engineer will
approach each problem with the "rational" or clinical approach of empirically
weighing the cause and effect of each design decision against the project's
technical and economical design targets (example: "Can this material be
moulded into the designer's desired shape? "), whereas the designer will
approach each problem with the "irrational" or "feel" point of view (example:
"Does this material feel cold or warm, and is this feeling appropriate to this
vehicle's target consumer?" Will it be prohibitively expensive to produce? ")

14 | P a g e
Figure 5 Exploded view of the prototype CAD model

One of my first jobs was to design and create CAD models in Solidworks and
ANSYS. The software that I am most comfortable in is Solidworks; however, I
have had some training in ANSYS and Fusion360 as well. The model was
designed according to basic hand drawings that had been finalised on in the
early stages. All design procedures follow this rule, where first-hand drawings
are made, and then the computer models are developed. I had to make sure I
had measured each and every part and geometry of the bike chassis accurately
to make sure it was made as per the actual bike with precision. It was the most
tiresome job, in my opinion, since it involved long hours of sitting on the
computer and just using the hit and trial method to get the body right. Since
some of the parts couldn’t be directly measured, I used the Sketch picture tool
to copy close up images of these parts and then tried to model them in the
CAD software. It was also the most time consuming as each and every
individual part had to be modelled with precision so that it fits in with others in
the assembly. This point is critical as the assembly will not be accurate and
precise if the constituent parts are not made-to-fit. It was very lengthy to
create each and every small part according to measure. This step is definitely
way more complicated than it looks.

15 | P a g e
Figure 6 Screengrab from video render from Blender

Next, I would say I computed the renders of parts and the whole body.
Rendering is the process of using application programmes to generate a two-
dimensional or three-dimensional image from a model. Architectural
rendering, computer games, animated films, simulators, T.V. special effects,
and design visualisation are all examples of rendering. For this, I used a few
different software and also tried my hand at animation. First, I started with
Solidworks itself as I was modelling in it; thus, it made sense to render the
environment and parts in it as well. Solidworks has a built-in rendering engine
called PhotoView 360, which is a really efficient and powerful tool. Then I also
tried Blender, but it was a very advanced tool that was majorly used in the
animation industry more so than the modelling or design one. However, I did
try to make an animation of the bike running in it, and the video came out
really well. Last but not least, I also tried Keyshot, and it is basically a special
software that only deals with rendering scenes and 3d CAD models and thus
was the best fit for the job. The best output thus far was given by Keyshot, as I
could play with lighting and surfaces and create my own background as well.
Also, I was responsible for on-field work where I, along with my supervisor, had
to scour the markets of Delhi in search of parts for the prototype. We spent
days exploring Karol Bagh – Naiwala market to procure Bike parts and to get
some pipes and wiring custom made; also, a lot of time was spent in
Jhandewalan. But the best part, I would say, was scouring the markets of
Chandni Chowk in search of electronics and electrical parts. There is a

16 | P a g e
Figure 7 Naiwala Bike market in Karol Bagh

Dedicated market situated where only electrical parts are sold in retail and
wholesale. This helped me gain experience and knowledge about the bike
market in Karol Bagh and the electrical parts market in Chandni Chowk.
All throughout this, I worked on the prototype as well. I was given the
responsibility to oversee and supervise the forming and moulding of the body
panels. I had to ensure they were made as per the CAD model. Some features
were later on discovered by us to be extremely difficult to hand form, so we
had to go back and forth with the 3d design and actual forming steps. The body
panels, or fairings as it is called, were made from steel sheets; for now, later
this would be used to create a mould for the creation
of the same fairings but in fibreglass. Meanwhile, I
also assisted in the connections and testing of the
electrical components. A few of the times, I myself
directly worked on the harness and all wiring and
tested the whole bike with all systems on. Special care
had to be given to this step as quite a few of the lines
had 72V 15A directly coming from the battery. This for
me, was a very new experience and the part where I
learned the most.

the prototype

17 | P a g e
Figure 9 Final electrical work done on bike

Another part of my job was to research about subparts of the bike and its
systems. These included but were not limited to the wiring and circuitry,
battery and BMS and various types of motors. Calculation work for the battery
was done using the volume weight and charge capacity of each individual cell.
Motor calculations were limited to finding output speeds and torque with
various input electric current settings. Also, another aspect was to research
and find an even more efficient and higher performing battery and motor. The
batteries that were finalised were to be chosen from either Li-Po or Li-Fe-PO,
while the list for motors was longer, but the top two candidates were PMSM
and BLDC motors.
Towards the end, I also worked on the 3d CAD design of the second prototype.
This would be manufactured completely by us and wouldn’t use any parts from
existing bikes. Hence, it was tailor-made for our use and preferences; it had a
wider body and lesser bars as there is no need for extra attachments since we
have no engine and its related parts, just the battery the motor controller and
the motor itself. This time the dimensions of the final battery were kept in
mind before construction, and thus it could’ve been carried forward till the
final model. Lots of design editions for the chassis were made in this step.

18 | P a g e
Some Problems faced –
 Cad models that I received initially were off in all their measurements.
They were very off from the original and incorrect. So, I had to take
them all from the actual model and change all dimensions of the chassis
and body panels. The part where I had to get the complicated and bent
parts right was the most complex.
 For me wiring was a very new task, but once I got comfortable and used
to it, I became perfect really quickly; a great help for me was when I
made a diagram just for my own reference, which sped up the process.
 The trickiest part was attaching the harness and all electronic sub-
components to it. This was the most complex step since we were
working on a whole different system and had to come up with
innovative ways to solve the hurdles.
 One notable example was the wiring of the parking lights indicator –
Essentially, we didn’t have the parking indicators on the existing handle
controls. So, we used the existing blinkers along with a switch that
shorted both sides leading to this switch when used in combination with
the indicators would make all the indicators blink thus, serving as
parking lights.
 Cutting the battery wires short with limited tools and thus had to
improvise adapt and overcome.
 Working with the body moulding and sheet metal forming was tricky as
it was all handmade and both the left and right sides had to be made
precisely the same. So, a workaround was found which included making
paper cut-outs of the metal part for one side and then copying the other
side using the paper templates.
 Testing the motor was a very intricate process in itself and it had its fair
share of problems with it. During the first test the throttle wires got fried
and it took a whole day of testing each and every individual part to
pinpoint this issue.
 On the final day everything was working smoothly but battery bms
incurred a fault and stopped working, the harness must have been short-
circuited and the BMS probably cut off the supply because of the inbuilt
safety cut off protocol. The output had been reduced to a mere 3V from
its original 72V. The battery had to be opened and reset and finally, to
everyone’s relief it all worked fine and the first successful test run was
performed.

Skills acquired –
 I developed high-level CAD modelling skills and learnt a lot more
features and tricks.
 This was the first time I worked with rendering and I was successful in
learning most techniques.
 I obtained a lot of electrical training. I got really good at wiring, testing
and completing circuits
 I got to learn about motors, batteries and their chemistry, capacity,
costs,
 I went out of my comfort zone to carry out the procurement of parts and
components from all around Delhi
 I polished up my people skills when I had to communicate with potential
test riders and take their feedback
 Basically, I got to understand, experience and perform first-hand all the
design steps of making a bike from bare chassis to finishing with seats

Conclusion
From my internship at Warrison, I was able to get a better understanding of
how the manufacturing industry works and how designing is really essential to
it. I enjoyed working with the Warrison team to devise and implement
different strategies and procedures. However, I still have a long way to go in
understanding what it truly takes to become a successful design engineer.
Overall, I found the design engineer intern experience to be positive, and I'm
sure I will be able to use the skills I learned in my career later.
