[0038] The basis for the division of the mode priority management is the following weighted scoring model:

[0039] S mode = 0.4S s + 0.3S e + 0.3S d

[0040] where S s represents the safety score, and its value is based on the road longitudinal slope value i and the vehicle load M; S e represents the energy efficiency score, and its value is based on the remaining battery charge SOC1 of the power battery carried by the electric tractor, the remaining battery charge SOC2 of the power battery carried by the electric trailer, and the historical energy consumption; S d represents the driver intention score, and its value is based on the acceleration pedal opening change rate signal K c and the vehicle shift mode signal shift modei .

[0041] The control unit further includes a fault tolerance module. When the electric drive axle carried by the second axle of the electric tractor, the electric drive axle carried by the third axle of the electric tractor, or the electric drive axle carried by the electric trailer fails, it automatically increases the driving torque output of the non-failed electric drive axles and redistributes the weight coefficients to maintain the minimum power demand of the vehicle.

[0042] The shift control method without power interruption for an electric tractor and an electric trailer is compatible with an extended-range hybrid architecture. The electric drive axle of the trailer can be switched to the power generation mode, and the energy distribution between the power batteries is coordinated by the vehicle controller.
