Abstract

A chassis for an electric vehicle comprises a base frame 10, a front frame 20, a rear frame 30, two side frames 40, four suspension devices A and four wheels B. The front frame 20 and the rear frame 30 have the front arc-shaped tube 21 and the arc-shaped rear tube 31 fixed to the base frame 10. The arc-shaped tubes 21,31 can not only reduce the number of tubes required but also increase the area of thrust force as compared to the straight tubes. Besides, the arc of the arc-shaped tubes 21,31 avoids a connection point of an acute angle, thus preventing stress concentration while improving the structural strength of the chassis. Further, the arc-shaped front tube, the arc-shaped rear tube, the transversely extending front connecting tube 22 and rear connecting tube 32 are hollow, which contributes to achieving a lightweight chassis.
