As vehicle powertrain efficiency increases through electrification, consumer travel and driving behavior have significantly more influence on the potential fuel consumption of these vehicles. Therefore, it is critical to have a good understanding of in-use or “real world” driving behavior if accurate fuel consumption estimates of electric drive vehicles are to be achieved. Regional travel surveys...
Ecological driving aiming at optimizing energy consumption is highly desirable for sustainable intelligent transportation systems. This paper presents a unique development of ecological vehicle driving system in model predictive approach. The vehicle's fuel consumption model and the model based anticipation of future road-traffic situations are used in this rigorous reasoning approach of deriving...
This paper presents a survey about the perception of achievable automobile fuel economies versus EPA ratings. The survey follows up of a driving experiment in which the fuel consumed was 30% lower than the rated consumption for the same distance. On one hand, the results of the survey suggest that for most people, the perception of the possible fuel economy of a particular car seems to be biased by...
