Dynamic fuel economy mode

摘要

In exemplary embodiments, methods, systems, and vehicles are provided for controlling operation of a vehicle in a fuel economy mode. In one embodiment, a vehicle is includes a battery, a generator, and a control system for controlling operation of the vehicle in a fuel economy mode, the control system including: (i) one or more current sensors configured to measure a battery current of the battery; and (ii) a processor coupled to the one or more current sensors and configured to at least facilitate controlling operation of the battery and the generator in the fuel economy mode utilizing a dynamic voltage threshold that is adjusted based on a comparison of the battery current with a baseload current threshold.
