  • Publication number: 20230234589
    Abstract: A control system for an electric vehicle configured to simulate an engine stall which might occur in conventional vehicles while preventing the simulation of the engine stall in an unfavorable situation. A controller of the control system is configured to: execute an engine stall control to simulate a behavior of the conventional vehicle in a situation where an engine stall occurs by stopping a motor, when a virtual engine speed calculated by a virtual engine speed calculator falls below a predetermined speed; and execute a hold assist control to apply a brake torque to the wheel by the brake device upon execution of the engine stall control.

  • Publication number: 20220219673
    Abstract: A control system for a hybrid vehicle that is configured to generate a driving force as required even if it is necessary to charge a battery rapidly. The hybrid vehicle may be propelled in a parallel mode in which power of the engine is partially translated into electric power by a motor and the remaining power of the engine is delivered to drive wheels. In a case that a rapid charging command is transmitted and that a required driving force is greater than a first driving force, the motor is operated to generate electric power in a predetermined amount, and the driving force is restricted to the first driving force.
