Abstract

The rolling chassis 100 comprises a front module 110, a rear module 130 and an intermediate module 120. A drive motor (not shown) mountable in any one of the front module 110 and the rear module 130 to provide any one of a front wheel drive configuration and a rear wheel drive configuration, and plurality of battery packs assembled in the intermediate module 120 for supplying power to the drive motor. The rolling chassis 100, characterized by the front module 110 and the rear module 130 are interconvertible to each other. The interconvertible feature is achieved based on common provisions in each of the front module 110 and the rear module 130. Further, keeping the same position of the front module 110 and the rear module 130, the size, length of the intermediate module 120 is increased or decreased based on the required wheel bases.
