      abstract = {This paper presents the development of a cost-effective Rechargeable Hybrid Electric Vehicle (RHEV) in the form of a dual-mode scooter designed for urban and semi-urban transportation. The scooter operates initially in electric mode using a battery-powered motor for zero-emission travel. When the battery charge drops below a defined threshold, the rider can manually switch to a petrol engine that both powers the vehicle and recharges the battery simultaneously. This hybrid setup eliminates range anxiety commonly associated with electric vehicles and provides off-grid battery charging through onboard regeneration. The project integrates a switching mechanism, a DC motor, a battery charging unit, and a compact petrol engine, offering a sustainable solution without requiring extensive EV charging infrastructure.},
