  • Engine control system for enabling multi-mode drivability in off-road vehicles
    Patent number: 11506139
    Abstract: The present disclosure envisages an engine control system (100) that enables multi-mode drivability in off-road vehicles. The system (100) comprises a mode selection device (101) and an electronic control unit (ECU) (104). The mode selection device (101) is configured to receive an input from an operator for selection of at least one mode of engine operation, and to generate a mode selection signal corresponding to the input. The electronic control unit (ECU) (104) is communicatively coupled with the mode selection device (101) to receive the mode selection signal and generate at least one control signal. The electronic control unit (ECU) (104) is further configured to control a fuel injection system (106) of the vehicle based on the selected mode according to the load requirement, thereby facilitating multi-mode drivability. The system (100) allows a vehicle to operate in different operating modes as per terrain conditions.
