Abstract: A simulated shift system for a battery electric vehicle (BEV) includes a set of sensors configured to monitor a set of parameters indicative of driver input by a driver of the BEV and a controller configured to control an electric drive module (EDM) of the BEV, the EDM comprising a gear system connected to an electric motor and being configured to output drive torque to a driveline of the BEV, receive the monitored set of parameters, and, based on the monitored set of parameters, selectively control the EDM to adjust drive torque output therefrom to simulate transmission shift operations of a predetermined conventional automotive automatic transmission having four or more speeds.

Abstract: Control systems and methods for a vehicle automatic transmission utilize a driver interface configured to receive input from a driver of the vehicle relating to a custom shift mode of the automatic transmission and a controller configured to monitor a driving history of the vehicle and, based on the driving history, determine a reduced shift sequence for the transmission to utilize during the custom shift mode, the reduced shift sequence specifying a subset of available forward gears of the transmission to utilize during the custom shift mode, the subset of gears being less than a total number of available forward gears of the transmission, such that one or more available forward gears are skipped in the reduced shift sequence, initiate the custom shift mode for the transmission, and during the custom shift mode, control shifting of the transmission according to the reduced shift sequence.
