Abstract

Active driveline technologies allow vehicles to dynamically control power distribution among driving wheels to improve vehicle operational parameters that impact terrain mobility. Two 4x4 electrified drivelines are compared which provide a variable power split: a hybrid electric vehicle with a controllable power transmitting unit and a fully electric vehicle (FEV) with individual electric wheel drives. The individual e-drives have the potential to improve mobility when the left and right wheel terrain conditions are drastically different.
