Systems and methods automatically rescale an original electric motor model so that it models an electric motor of a different size. The original electric motor model may be coupled to a motor controller model, and the systems and methods may also rescale the original motor controller model to produce a rescaled motor controller model matched to the rescaled electric motor model. The original electric motor model may include motor parameters and motor lookup tables, and the original motor controller model may include controller parameters and controller lookup tables. Rescaling factors indicating the size of the new electric motor being modeled may be received, and ratios may be computed as a function of the rescaling factors. Original motor parameters and controller parameters may be rescaled based on the ratios. Original motor lookup tables and controller lookup tables may be reshaped based on the ratios.

A method for diagnosing fuel leakage of a vehicle includes: measuring a pressure of a fuel tank by a pressure sensor in a closed state of a fuel system during starting-off of the vehicle; measuring an inner temperature of the fuel tank by a temperature sensor; and diagnosing, by a controller, whether or not leakage occurs by performing different leakage diagnoses depending on a pressure condition of the fuel tank. Thus, the controller performs a first leakage diagnosis when a pressure value of the fuel tank, measured in the measuring the pressure of the fuel tank, is within an atmospheric pressure level; performs a second leakage diagnosis when the pressure value is higher than a positive pressure; and performs a third leakage diagnosis when the pressure value is lower than a negative pressure.

In one example, a method for an exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) system of a vehicle comprises diagnosing an excessive EGR flow rate via an MAP-MAF strategy, the MAP-MAF strategy including estimating an EGR flow rate based on a difference between an output of a manifold absolute pressure (MAP) sensor of the vehicle and an output of a mass airflow (MAF) sensor of the vehicle; and in response to stable intrusive conditions being met, intrusively commanding an EGR valve of the EGR system to a closed position to confirm the diagnosed excessive EGR flow rate. If the excessive flow is detected after the EGR valve is commanded to the closed position, a diagnostic code may be set.
