An apparatus for displaying a distance to empty of a vehicle includes a controller configured to: estimate a mass of the vehicle, which increases or decreases while the vehicle is running; to calculate a driving energy consumption using a past-learned energy consumption based on a mass level corresponding to the increase or decrease in mass of the vehicle while the vehicle is running, and a current energy consumption of the vehicle; to calculate the distance to empty of the vehicle based on the driving energy consumption; to determine whether to update the distance to empty displayed on a display based on the mass level while the vehicle is running; and to update display information on the display based on the distance to empty.

Apparatus and method for displaying distance to empty of vehicle

An apparatus, a system, and a method are for automatically billing a vehicle left unattended in a charging station. The automatic billing apparatus includes a processor that provides a vehicle charging service at a charging station, determines that a vehicle is unattended after charging is completed, and performs a billing based on an unattended time. The apparatus further includes a storage that stores data obtained by the processor when the billing is performed.

A battery temperature control system includes: a memory storing a maximum charging current map according to temperature of a battery for an electric vehicle, and an allowable current map according to a control pilot (CP) duty; and a temperature controller comparing a maximum charging current corresponding to a current temperature of the battery with an allowable current corresponding to a current CP duty to determine whether to increase the temperature of the battery.

Battery temperature control system and method

Disclosed are a vehicle and method for managing a battery for vehicle. The vehicle includes a battery configured to be charged and discharged while connected to a charger; and a controller configured to charge the battery by distributing charging current for the battery with the foremost priority if the charging current for the battery is smaller than consumption current, and distribute the consumption current after a state of charge (SoC) of the battery reaches a target charging level.

An apparatus for controlling a vehicle having a motor is provided and includes a driving information sensor that senses driving information of the vehicle including an open value of an APS, an open value of a BPS, a driving wheel speed, a non-driving wheel speed, external temperature, battery temperature, a vehicle speed, and a shift stage. A driving motor generates a driving force and is operated as a power generator when the vehicle coasts to generate electric energy. An ABS that adjusts a braking force applied to a driving wheel. A controller changes a coast regeneration torque subject to regenerative braking by the driving motor when the vehicle is coasting, based on a difference between a driving wheel speed and a non-driving wheel speed, correction temperature determined based on the external temperature and the battery temperature, a friction coefficient of a road, and an operation condition of the ABS.

Apparatus and method for controlling vehicle having motor

A method for controlling regenerative braking of a vehicle is provided, in which a driving area of a motor is decided when shifting gears during regenerative braking, and an amount of regenerative braking is determined based on the decided result. The method includes a first process of deciding whether motor torque is in a constant power mode, a second process of deciding whether the motor torque is in a constant torque mode, and a third process of deciding whether the mode of the motor torque is converted into the constant torque mode from the constant power mode.

Method for controlling regenerative braking of vehicle

The present disclosure provides an apparatus and a method for controlling a vibration of a driving motor in a vehicle by generating a vibration reduction torque using gains that correspond to a torque variation and an RPM of a driving motor. The method includes storing a gain table in which gain values that correspond to a torque variation and a revolution per minute (RPM) of a driving motor in a vehicle are recorded. The torque variation of the driving motor and the RPM of the driving motor are detected. The gain values are determined using the detected torque variation and RPM of the driving motor based on the gain table and reducing. In addition, a vibration of the driving motor is reduced based on the determined gain values.
