The revolution from gasoline-powered vehicles to electric vehicles (EVs) has been a gradual process to stabilize climate change due to global warming and maintain our standard of living. Zero emission of harmful exhaust gases is a good sign for our health. EVs have several benefits than petrol/diesel vehicles like less noise pollution, low maintenance cost, and low cost of fuel per km. Efficycle is a sustainable hybrid eco-friendly trike which can be driven by human power by pedaling and/or by power from an electric motor. It has a tadpole configuration having a capacity of two commuters. In this paper, we focused on enhancement of vehicle dynamic performance by optimum selection of transmission system components. Proper design of electric drive to overcome required torque on all terrains and comfortable drive is vital to maximize battery discharge time.
