The continuous development and evolution of electric vehicle causes the electric car manufacturers to face new challenges. Now, the lithium-ion batteries are widely used in electric vehicles which has high current discharge rate. During overloading, electric motor draws large amount of current which leads to degradation in battery life and overheating. Most of the time, the user is unaware of vehicle loading. This paper discusses the method to overcome this issue by estimating vehicle load on real time and alerting the use of vehicle. Using load cell to measure the data and send the data to the cloud by means of Amazon Web Services (AWS). When the vehicle is overloaded, a notification sent to the user. Realtime loading data is shown on dashboard. Using evolving Technologies like IoT makes easy to storing the data on cloud. This enables service engineers to evaluate and improve vehicle, based on working conditions for future needs. This can also be used for future needs like reliable range prediction of electric vehicle and autonomous vehicle driving system.
