A vehicle having a high voltage power source for operating high voltage devices, such as in-wheel electric motors for propelling the vehicle. The high voltage in-wheel electric motors are controlled by dedicated controllers paired with the devices and requiring low voltage power. The vehicle includes one or more converters paired with the dedicated controller(s) and for converting high voltage power to low voltage power suitable for powering the controllers.
