Embodiment Construction

[0018] Electric vehicle driving modes and methods of use are described. In one aspect, a vehicle includes a driving mode selection unit. The driving mode selection unit may be used to select a specific driving mode from among a plurality of driving modes. In some embodiments, the first driving mode may allow greater acceleration than the second driving mode. In some embodiments, the vehicle may be able to use more energy in the first driving mode than in the second driving mode. Driving modes may include one or more profiles, including motor torque profile (i.e., acceleration) profile, regenerative braking level profile, electric power steering profile, electronic stability control profile, anti-lock braking system profile gear and / or top speed profile. In one embodiment, three or more of these (or other) profiles are implemented when the user selects the desired mode.

[0019] Generally, vehicles are built for a specific purpose. For example, a sports car may be designed...

Abstract

Alternative driving modes are disclosed, electric vehicle driving modes and methods of use are described. A vehicle includes a driving mode selection unit. The driving mode selection unit may be used to select a specific driving mode from among a plurality of driving modes. The vehicle may be able to use more energy in the first driving mode than in the second driving mode. The driving modes may include at least three vehicle system operating profiles, including an electric motor torque command profile, a regenerative braking level profile, an electric power steering profile, an electronic stability control profile, an antilock braking system profile, and At least three of the top speeds.

Description

[0001] related application [0002] This application claims priority under Section 119(e) of U.S. Patent Code 35 U.S.C., to U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 61 / 334,441, filed May 13, 2010, entitled "Selectable Driving Modes," which The entire contents are hereby incorporated by reference for all purposes. technical field [0003] Aspects relate to electric vehicle driving modes and methods of use thereof, and in particular, to driver-selectable driving modes to select between a plurality of desired driving styles. Background technique [0004] Rising oil costs and concerns over carbon dioxide pollution have led to increased interest in alternative fuel vehicles, such as hybrid and electric vehicles. Some alternative fuel vehicles allow the user to control the balance between vehicle performance (eg, acceleration) and energy efficiency (eg, driving range) by selecting a driving mode. For example, a hybrid vehicle may be configured to have a low energy efficiency mode...
