Patent number: 9283964Abstract: A driving mode recommendation method stores driving mode information in a database for each customer and recommends a driving mode based on customer characteristic and environment analysis information. The method includes receiving a starting point and a destination from a terminal of a corresponding customer vehicle by a server. A route from the starting point to the destination is divided into sections according to a road type and a road form. It is determined whether the driving mode information is stored in the database for the divided sections. The stored driving mode information is generated as recommendation mode information for a section where the driving mode information is stored in the database by the server. Average value information of a general customer is generated as the recommendation mode information for a section where the driving mode information is not stored in the database.Type: GrantFiled: June 24, 2014Date of Patent: March 15, 2016Assignee: HYUNDAI MOTOR COMPANYInventors: Seon Su Kim, Seung-Chang Park
