Aspects of the invention are directed towards a system and method for safe decoupling of the external power supply from a vehicle. The technology described herein provides an indication or an alert to the user at an appropriate time and avoids the possible damage to the system. The system comprises an electrical port by which the refrigerator can be connected to an external AC mains supply via an electrical cable when the vehicle is in stationary state. The system further comprises a refrigerator main controller unit (RMU) for controlling the power delivered to the refrigerator in both stationary and driving states of the vehicle. There is a safety system installed for restricting the vehicle from being driven when the electrical port of the system is connected to the AC mains supply via the electrical cable and the refrigerator is powered by the AC mains supply.

An electrified vehicle system includes an electric motor coupled to a drive wheel via a plurality of power transmission components and a control device. The control device is configured to act as: a feedforward control section configured based on a transfer function simulating vibration transmission characteristics of a power transmission system, receiving as an input a required torque of the electric motor from a driver, and outputting a base command torque of the electric motor; a timing estimation section estimating, based on information on the power transmission system, a timing at which a backlash between the plurality of power transmission components is eliminated; and a torque correction section applying, to the base command torque, a correction torque for reducing a vibration generated in the power transmission system due to elimination of the backlash, in response to an arrival of the timing estimated by the timing estimation section.

The present application relates to the technical field of new energy vehicles- and provides a method and an apparatus for controlling a new energy vehicle. The control method comprises: detecting whether a single pedal control mode is activated; and controlling the new energy vehicle to enter a creep mode according to at least one of a gear position of the new energy vehicle, an action of a brake pedal of the new energy vehicle, and a speed of the new energy vehicle, when it is detected that the single pedal control mode is activated. The present application is able to control the switch of the creep mode according to the driving intention.

A system includes a reference speed module and a motor control module. The reference speed module is configured to determine a reference speed range based on a speed of a left wheel of a pair of front or rear wheels of a vehicle and a speed of a right wheel of the pair of front or rear wheels. The right wheel is disconnected from the left wheel. The motor control module is configured to control at least one of a first electric motor and a second electric motor based on the reference speed range. The first electric motor is connected to the left wheel. The second electric motor is connected to the right wheel.
