Embodiments of the disclosure provide an electric vehicle and a method for controlling the electric vehicle. The electric vehicle includes at least one electric motorized wheel to drive the electric vehicle; a pressure sensor module configured to detect pressure on the electric vehicle; a communication interface configured to receive remote instructions from a remote controller; and a central controller configured to operate the at least one electric motorized wheel in a control mode based on at least one of the received remote instructions and the pressure.

A method for manually and individually configuring a recuperation behavior of an electrically driven vehicle includes the manual setting of the recuperation behavior. The manual setting of the recuperation behavior includes both setting a recuperation intensity and setting a recuperation delay. Accordingly, it is possible to manually meter the braking torque such that both a pleasant driving sensation as well as a situation-specific energy recovery is achieved.

A management system includes a controller that selects a power transmission vehicle from an electrified vehicle group. A storage amount of an electricity storage device loaded in each electrified vehicle increases or decreases between maximum and minimum storage amounts. When the maximum storage amount and a current storage amount currently stored in the electricity storage device are a first storage amount and a second storage amount, a reference storage amount set between the maximum and minimum storage amounts is a third storage amount, a surplus storage amount obtained by subtracting the third storage amount from the second storage amount is a fourth storage amount, and a ratio of the fourth storage amount to the first storage amount is a surplus storage amount ratio, the controller determines a rank of each electrified vehicle in descending order of the surplus storage amount ratio and selects the power transmission vehicle based on the rank.

This disclosure describes systems, methods, and devices related to reserving electric vehicle charging ports. A method may include receiving, by a device of an electric vehicle charging bank, from a management system, a first indication of an application-originated request to reserve the electric vehicle charging bank; receiving charging data, from the electric vehicle charging bank, which indicate that a first electric vehicle charging station of the electric vehicle charging bank is available for charging an electric vehicle; sending to the management system, the charging data; receiving, from the management system, a third indication of an application-originated reservation of the first electric vehicle charging station; determining, based on the charging data, an amount of amperage to distribute to the first electric vehicle charging station for the application-originated reservation; and send, to the electric vehicle charging bank, an instruction to distribute the amount of amperage to the first electric vehicle charging station.

Axial Flux Outboard Propulsion System for an Electric Boat having a first axial flux motor that is positioned adjacent to a second axial flux motor and the ability to selectively turn each motor on or off via the control system based on the request or need for torque.

The electric vehicle according to the present disclosure calculates motor torque using an MT vehicle model simulating an MT vehicle having a manual transmission and an internal combustion engine. In the first operation mode, an operation amount of a pseudo-clutch pedal and a shift position of a pseudo-gearshift are input to the MT vehicle model to reflect operation of the pseudo-clutch pedal and operation of the pseudo-gearshift in electric motor control. In the second operation mode where the operation of the pseudo-clutch pedal is not needed, an operation amount of a clutch pedal calculated by a driver model is input to the MT vehicle model instead of the operation amount of the pseudo-clutch pedal.

The present invention relates to a supply cable (1) for transmitting electrical energy to or from a vehicle (2), the supply cable (1) comprising at least one connector (3, 4) for connecting the supply cable (1) to a vehicle (2) and/or a charging port (5) and/or a consumer (6), and a sensor (7) for detecting accelerations and/or rotation rates, wherein the supply cable (1) is configured to detect a spatial position and/or movement of a partial area of the supply cable (1) with the aid of the sensor (7), in particular of the connector (3, 4), and to set an operating mode of the supply cable (1) as a function of the detected position and/or movement.

In order to achieve a charging service using an outlet of 100 V or 200V, the present invention provides a management server 10 including an acquisition unit 11 that acquires, from a user terminal, apparatus specifying information specifying a control apparatus that controls power supply to an outlet, and a control execution unit 12 that executes processing of controlling the control apparatus specified by the apparatus specifying information.

A notification method includes: determining candidate destinations for a vehicle from among a plurality of facilities requesting for electric power, using first information about the vehicle and second information about the plurality of facilities; and transmitting the candidate destinations to a user terminal of the vehicle. The first information includes a power generation type of an electric power stored in a power storage device included in the vehicle. The second information includes a power generation type of the electric power requested by each of the plurality of facilities.

A battery diagnosis apparatus is configured to perform a diagnosis process that determines whether a battery mounted on an electric vehicle is a normal product. The battery diagnosis apparatus includes a battery control unit. The battery control unit is configured to diagnose that the battery is not the normal product when one of the following conditions is satisfied: a voltage of the battery decreases to a lower limit voltage before a predetermined time elapses from a start of discharging of a current having a predetermined current value from the battery; and an output value from the battery during a period from the start of the discharging until the elapse of the predetermined time is equal to or less than a predetermined ratio of an output value to be outputted from a genuine, new battery during the period from the start of the discharging until the elapse of the predetermined time.
