A vehicle includes a chassis, a housing to house one or more battery modules, the housing being supported by the chassis, an electric motor to receive electrical power from the one or more battery modules, a liquid cooling system including a radiator to cool a coolant when the coolant flows through the radiator, and one or more coolant pumps connected to the radiator to circulate the coolant, and an air cooling system to cool the one or more battery modules. The air cooling system includes a compressor, a condenser, and one or more evaporator coils, and the radiator and the condenser are located adjacent to each other.

Liquid cooling system for an electric vehicle

According to a preferred embodiment of the present invention, a work vehicle includes a main body, at least one front wheel supported by the main body, at least one rear wheel supported by the main body, a first housing to house one or more first battery modules, and a second housing to house one or more second battery modules. The first housing at least partially overlaps the second housing, and the first housing is offset from the second housing in a front-rear direction of the work vehicle.

Work vehicle with horizontally offset battery housings

A vehicle includes a first battery housing to house a plurality of first battery modules, and an air cooling system to cool the plurality of first battery modules. The air cooling system includes a compressor, a condenser, and an evaporator coil. The evaporator coil includes a first side at which warm air is received and a second side at which cool air exits after having passed through the evaporator coil, and the cool air that exits the second side of the evaporator coil flows into the first battery housing at a central portion of the first battery housing.
