    The rapid development in the field of electric vehicles requires a careful evaluation of the design process. The presence of a simulation model of the electric vehicle can effectively detect many faulty areas during the development process without risks. The MATLAB and Simulink environment is considered one of the most important tools used in the simulation process. In this paper, we will present the model of electric car used for transporting postal parcels (postal cars). The model includes simulating the operation of a permanent magnet synchronous electric motor. We will assume that the car is moving according to a driving cycle. The results will show the torque forces required to achieve the required speed. We will further calculate the traction and the resistance forces during the driving cycle and the engine efficiency in addition. Perhaps the most important problem facing electric car designers is calculating the amount of energy consumed from the battery or hydrogen fuel, and this is what was achieved as the result of the simulation process in this research. In the end, use one of the artificial intelligence tools (fuzzy controller) to improve battery life by providing the electric car driver with an alert system that will increase the ability to monitor the battery condition and thus increase battery life. The benefit of this paper emerges in realizing the importance of modeling and using simulation using artificial intelligence in developing the design of the electric car, specially the electric motor and battery size, and thus achieving one of the most important goals of the United Nations of preserving the environment and reducing carbon emissions.
