Control strategy of four-wheel drive plug-in hybrid electric vehicle

To promote the industrialization of plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEV), a practical four-wheel drive hybrid electric vehicle configuration is introduced. A control strategy based on engine high efficient area is proposed for the PHEV. Simulink model of the control strategy and AVL cruise model of the PHEV are built. The results of co-simulation show that the PHEV has excellent power and fuel economy performance.
