Switch Rebuildable EV Training System – Lithium Ion

Switch Vehicles are designed to be built, tested and driven, and then disassembled for the next class to use – every semester, and year after year – and comes with all the tools, safety equipment, and courseware you need to run a 17-week class, an 8-week after-school club project, or a 2-week summer workshop.

The final project in the Switch Lab EV Pathway. Students build, wire, configure, test, and drive a complete electric vehicle while applying skills in electrical systems, batteries, high-voltage safety, diagnostics, documentation, and teamwork. By the time students reach the PM/96v capstone, they are applying skills from across the pathway in one complete vehicle project.

Designed for CTE, STEM, automotive, engineering, and technical education programs, the PM/96v turns EV education into a complete project-based learning experience. It gives students access to real EV components, visible system architecture, configurable controls, and a rebuildable platform that can support multiple cohorts year after year.

The vehicle is designed to be assembled, disassembled, rebuilt, and used across multiple cohorts. That makes it a long-term instructional asset for programs that want repeatable student outcomes year after year.

Safety First

At Switch Vehicles, safety is prioritized, ensuring that every hands-on learning experience with our electric vehicle is both educational and secure. Here’s a look at the robust safety features we’ve integrated:

      • Emergency Battery Disconnect: For added safety, our vehicle is equipped with an emergency disconnect button that effectively splits the battery pack in half, reducing a 96v system to a safer 48v in an instant.
      • Protected Design: The vehicle’s frame is fully insulated to enhance safety during operation and maintenance sessions.
      • Dual Brake System: To ensure precise and reliable stopping power, our electric vehicle is equipped with two separate brake systems — one for the front and another for the rear.
      • Built-in Steel Roll Cage: Our robust steel roll cage is designed to protect occupants by reinforcing the vehicle’s structure, offering peace of mind during operation.
      • Insulated Tools: Safety extends to maintenance too. We provide a specially curated insulated tool kit, essential for safe handling during vehicle servicing.
