Abstract: A route optimization system for a battery electric vehicle (BEV) includes a controller programmed to perform the following operations. Determine a navigational route to a destination. Determine a predicted intelligent energy consumption of the BEV based on a set of vehicle operating conditions. Determine a trip estimated energy consumption based on the navigational route and the predicted intelligent energy consumption. If the trip estimated energy consumption is greater than a remaining energy in the high voltage battery, determine an electric vehicle supply equipment (EVSE) charging location along the navigational route. Determine an updated trip estimated energy consumption that accounts for addition of the EVSE charging location to the navigational route. Propose, to the user, an updated navigational route including the EVSE charging location if the remaining energy in the high voltage battery is sufficient to account for the addition of the EVSE charging location to the navigational route.

Abstract: An adaptive charging thermal optimization system for an electrified vehicle includes a set of thermal management components each configured to thermally condition a high voltage battery system of the electrified vehicle and a control system configured to detect whether the electrified vehicle is plugged into electrified vehicle supply equipment (EVSE) and, in response to detecting that the electrified vehicle is plugged into the EVSE, determine a set of charging parameters and limits for the high voltage battery system and the EVSE, determine a type or mode of the EVSE, determine a temperature setpoint for the high voltage battery system based on the charging parameters and limits for the high voltage battery system and the EVSE and the type or mode of the EVSE, and control the set of thermal management components based on the determined temperature setpoint and a measured temperature of the high voltage battery system.

Abstract: A dynamic regenerative braking system (DRBS) for an electrified vehicle having a high voltage (HV) battery system includes a user interface configured to display information and to receive user input for a route selection of the electrified vehicle, a global positioning satellite (GPS)/map data system configured to obtain GPS and map data associated with a current trip of the electrified vehicle, an advanced driver assistance system (ADAS) module having one or more sensors configured to obtain surrounding vehicle data and upcoming road conditions data, and a brake module configured to control a regenerative braking system and provide current road grade data. A controller is programmed to determine an energy efficient navigational route to a destination, which maximizes a power regeneration of the HV battery system via the regenerative braking system, based on the GPS/map data, the surrounding vehicle data, the upcoming road conditions data, and the current road grade data.

Abstract: In at least some implementations, a method for controlling energy use in a vehicle includes determining a travel path for a trip, determining a duration of travel for the trip, determining an energy requirement to complete the trip within the duration, comparing the energy requirement to a low energy threshold, and reducing the maximum energy output that is provided from the vehicle when the energy requirement is lower than the low energy threshold.
