Abstract: This research
focuses on handling
performances of an
innovative threewheeled vehicle.
A three-wheeled vehicle
is a fine
synthesis between the maneuverability and compactness of a
motorcycle andthe stability and loadbearing
capacity of a four-wheeled car.
Simulation using universal mechanism program
in expecting to
evaluate the parts
of handling with different configuraton
from a vehicle
to find new
handling index, which
is also shown the
quantity of kynematic
and dynamic of the
vehicle. Two wheeled vehicle has
a nimble maneuver and simple ofdimention better than four wheeled
vehicle. But its
also has weakness
in lacking of
handling, safetiness and stability, which is not found in
four wheeled vehicle. How if the three aspect applied into
two wheeled vehicle technology. The simulation result showed that i.r.c
configuration above the ground have roll
transfer function value
greater than i.r.c
configuration on the
ground and below the
ground at all
the speed. So
that, it concluded
that i.r.c configuration above
the ground was
easier to be
handle. These result
was agree with qualitatif
test. Most of
the test drivers
(96,7 %) said
that i.r.c configuration above
the ground had a little effort to handle
than the others configurations. However, 96,7 % of the test driverssaid that
i.r.c below the ground was more stable.
