AI Technical Summary
Technical Problem
Existing technologies struggle to accurately predict a vehicle's range under different ground conditions, especially since they neglect the impact of ground changes on energy consumption rates, leading to inaccurate range estimates.
Method used
The vehicle's computer detects changes in ground classification, uses sensor data and map information to predict the driving range on new terrain, updates the driving range prediction based on energy consumption rate, and actuates vehicle components to optimize operation.
Benefits of technology
It improves the accuracy of range prediction, supports more efficient vehicle operation and route planning, and provides more reliable range estimates.

Abstract
The present disclosure provides for "vehicle range." As the ground on which a vehicle is traveling changes from a previous ground on which the vehicle was traveling to a new ground on which the vehicle is traveling, a change in classification of the new ground on which the vehicle is traveling can be detected. Based on the change in classification and an amount of energy stored in the vehicle, a vehicle range for the new ground is predicted. Vehicle components are actuated based on the range.
