Route selection method and system for a vehicle having a regenerative shock absorber

摘要

A method includes directing a vehicle to take a route designated as a preferred route from among a plurality of potential routes. The designation as a preferred route is based in part on a predicted energy recovery from a regenerative shock absorber when the vehicle traverses the preferred route. A system includes a processor that executes a program designating at least one preferred route from among a plurality of potential routes. The designating is based in part on a predicted energy recovery from a regenerative shock absorber, and a transmitter that communicates the at least one preferred route to a vehicle.
