  • Publication number: 20210179107
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a vehicle and a parking control method therefor which can prevent a parking curb or a driving system from being damaged during parking due to collision with the parking curb or running over the parking curb according to creep torque imitation by an electric motor in a vehicle equipped with the electric motor. A parking control method includes determining whether a parking situation occurs, applying a creep torque modification coefficient to a creep torque until contact with an object that applies a reaction force to a wheel in a parking direction is sensed to determine a modified creep torque upon determining the parking situation, and variably controlling the creep torque by applying a variable coefficient to the modified creep torque.

  • Publication number: 20210178904
    Abstract: An apparatus and method control regenerative braking torque of an electric vehicle on which an anti-lock brake system (ABS) is mounted. The apparatus and method can compensate the regenerative braking torque of the driving motor based on the behavior model of the electric vehicle, such that the ABS is prevented from entering an operating range to the maximum limit to maximize the energy recovery rate through regenerative braking. The apparatus includes a disturbance extractor that extracts a disturbance in a specific frequency band from a difference between a behavior model and an actual behavior of the electric vehicle. The apparatus includes a torque compensator that compensates for the regenerative braking torque based on the disturbance extracted by the disturbance extractor.

  • Patent number: 10974715
    Abstract: A hybrid electric vehicle and a driving mode control method are provided to prevent overheating of an electric motor. The hybrid electric vehicle is chargeable using external power. The method includes collecting forward driving information when a state of charge of a battery is equal to or greater than a first value and calculating a driving load for each section based on the forward driving information. A risk of overheating of an electric motor is predicted using the calculated driving load. The vehicle is driven in a first mode using drive power of an engine in a section in which the predicted risk of overheating is greater than a second value and in a second mode using drive power of the electric motor in a section in which the predicted risk of overheating is equal to or less than a preset value.

  • Publication number: 20210101525
    Abstract: A brake lamp control method of a vehicle is provided. The method includes determining whether a deceleration of the vehicle based on regenerative brake through the electric motor is present in a hysteresis period between an off threshold as a reference for turning off a brake lamp and an on threshold as a reference for turning on the brake lamp. When the deceleration of the vehicle is present in the hysteresis period, the method includes determining a state of the brake lamp before the deceleration of the vehicle enters the hysteresis period. In response to determining that the brake lamp is turned on or off for a reason except for the regenerative brake before the deceleration of the vehicle enters the hysteresis period, a request for turning on the brake lamp is set or reset based on the regenerative brake in response to the determined state of the brake lamp.
