Abstract:
This study aims to outline the specifications and features that should be taken into consideration when designing a car . this study focused on investigating these features in the context of the topo-geography of the roads in hebron as a part of Palestine, the study methodology relied on investigation and analyzing the automobile data published online and reliable Palestinian statistics.
Both handling and performance equations were applied on the selected design . by applying these equations, it can be determined which are the features for the vehicle ( car ) design that is more suitable to the roads and that has the best performance , safe, fuel economy and less emission effect .
It was revealed that the car which is designed to have less frontal area and less body weight , would in turn have low total resistance . this enables the car to have a higher force and better performance when moving on the roads.
Its recommended that the comparison between the different designs must be done using the torque of the engine alongside the gear ratios, in order to decide the more efficient one for a specified use.
Also the decision of the vehicle operating cost was made only on the fuel consumption assuming the other costs constant.
