Embodiment Construction

[0027] As required, specific embodiments of the present application are disclosed herein; however, it is to be understood that the disclosed embodiments are merely exemplary of the invention, which may be embodied in various and alternative forms. The figures are not necessarily to scale; some features may be exaggerated or minimized to show details of particular components. Therefore, specific structural and functional details disclosed herein are not to be interpreted as limiting, but merely as a representative basis for teaching one skilled in the art to variously employ one or more embodiments of the present application.

[0028] Referring now to the accompanying drawings, figure 1 is a simplified exemplary schematic diagram of vehicle 10 . The illustrated embodiment depicts the vehicle 10 as a battery electric vehicle (BEV), a purely electric vehicle propelled by one or more electric motors 12 without assistance from an internal combustion engine. The electric motor 12 ...

Abstract

Driver braking performance feedback may be conveyed to a vehicle operator as a braking efficiency score using a vehicle display system. The display system may include a vehicle display for displaying a braking efficiency indicator or gauge corresponding to the braking efficiency score. The braking efficiency score may be based on a comparison of the total regenerative braking energy recaptured during at least one braking event to a either a maximum amount of braking energy that may be recaptured during the at least one braking event or an actual total braking energy expended during the at least one braking event. The braking efficiency score may be displayed upon the completion of a braking event or upon a completion of a trip including a plurality of braking events. The display may also convey a distance corresponding to a portion of a trip distance achieved through regenerative braking.

Description

[0001] Cross References to Related Applications [0002] This application claims the benefit of US Provisional Application No. 61 / 430,351, filed January 6, 2011, the disclosure of which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety. technical field [0003] The present application relates to a system and method for displaying regenerative braking performance feedback. Background technique [0004] Vehicles include multiple interfaces (eg, gauges, indicators, and / or displays) to convey information to the driver about the vehicle and its surroundings. These interfaces have become more complex with the advent of new technologies such as those used in hybrid electric vehicles (HEV), plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEV) and battery electric vehicles (BEV). For example, some vehicles include battery state-of-charge gauges and vehicle range indicators. Additionally, many HEVs include gauges that attempt to provide the driver with information about the various hybrid driv...
