Electric vehicles are increasingly used mobility vehicles today. The rims designed for these vehicles also contain different features than those rims designed for traditional vehicles. Since the load that these rims will carry is different from the traditional ones, they contain different designs in terms of being light and durable. These rims are exposed to very different fatigue conditions in contact with the road and the load. In this study, four different mini electric vehicle rims were designed and fatigue analysis was performed by applying different material assignments to these designs as a result of these analyses, a comparison of the four different rim designs was made. The design of the rims was designed using the CATIA V5 R21 program and the analyses were performed in the Ansys 18.1 analysis program. In the analysis of the rim design, aluminum alloy, and steel 4340 materials were used. In the analysis results, the lowest deformation with 0.2055 mm was obtained in the model originally designed with 4340 steel and the lowest equivalent stress with 85.833 MPa was obtained in the aluminum alloy type 3 design model. In the safety factors, the type 3 model design with 4340 steels gave the highest value with a value of 5.4583. In terms of damage, the type 3 design and aluminum alloy combination gave the lowest value with 13.079. In cycle comparison, the Al alloy type 3 design combination took the highest value and had 1.147 times more cycles than the type 2 design Al alloy combination. It was found that the combination with type 3 design and aluminum alloy material gave the most optimum results in fatigue analysis results among four different designs.
