• On-Board Charger (OBC): Transforms (inverts) AC power charge power, to DC power, to charge the high voltage battery

• Inverter: Transforms direct current into alternating current to supply power to the motor, and transforms alternating current into direct current to charge the high voltage battery.

• LDC: Transforms (converts) power from the high voltage battery to low voltage (12 V) to supply power to the vehicle (DC-DC).

• VCU: Functions as a supervisory controller of electric vehicle

• Motor: Uses electrical energy stored inside the high voltage battery to drive the vehicle (functions like an engine in a standard vehicle).

• Reduction gear: Delivers rotational force of the motor to the tires at appropriate speeds and torque.

• High voltage battery (lithium-ion polymer): Stores and supplies power necessary for the electric vehicle to operate (12 V auxiliary battery provides power to the vehicle features such as lights and wipers).
