Abstract

Methods, systems, and automotive vehicles are provided for providing routing for an automotive vehicle from a first location to a second location. The automotive vehicle is configured to operate using a primary energy source and a secondary energy source. An energy indicator is configured to provide a measure of available energy from the primary energy source onboard the automotive vehicle. A processor is coupled to the energy indicator, and is configured to ascertain characteristics of a plurality of segments connecting the first location and the second location, and to select an optimized route between the first location and the second location using the measure of available energy and the characteristics of the plurality of segments.

Description

technical field [0001] The present disclosure relates generally to the field of motor vehicles, and more particularly to a motor vehicle having a routing system that selects an optimized travel path. Background technique [0002] Many motor vehicles include a navigation system that provides the vehicle with a recommended route to a desired destination. However, the desired path selection using the prior art may not always provide a truly optimal path for vehicles using multiple energy sources, such as hybrid electric vehicles, for example. [0003] Accordingly, it would be desirable to provide a method of providing routing for motor vehicles using multiple energy sources. It would also be desirable to provide improved systems and vehicles for providing such routing. Furthermore, other desirable features and characteristics of the present invention will become apparent from the subsequent detailed description and the appended claims, taken in conjunction with the accompanyi...
