An apparatus and a method for controlling a vehicle includes a driveshaft that transmits a drive torque generated by a drive motor to a wheel, a sensor that obtains a speed of the vehicle, and a controller that monitors the drive torque to determine a change amount of the drive torque, determines a change in a torsion angle of the driveshaft based on the change amount of the drive torque, and determines whether wheel slip occurs based on an amount of speed change of the drive motor according to the change in the torsion angle of the driveshaft. Accordingly, it is possible to accurately determine wheel slip according to the friction of a road surface, providing safe driving to the driver.

Apparatus and method for controlling vehicle

A system for controlling charging of a battery of an eco-friendly vehicle includes: an on-board charger (OBC) mounted in the vehicle, setting a required charging current based on available charging current information received from a power supply unit supplying power for charging the battery, transmitting the required charging current to the power supply unit, and converting the power supplied from the power supply unit to charge the battery; and a controller determining whether charging of the battery is completed, and when it is determined that charging of the battery is abnormally terminated in a state where charging is not completed, changing the required charging current to charge the battery based on first information supplied from the power supply unit upon abnormal termination of charging and based on second information supplied from the power supply unit upon normal completion of charging.

System and method for controlling charging of battery of eco-friendly vehicle

A system for managing a battery of a vehicle includes a first controller configured to control a power-on (IG ON) state and a power-off (IG OFF) state of a plurality of controllers in the vehicle and to be periodically woken up in the power-off (IG OFF) state to wake up at least some of the plurality of controllers, and a second controller configured to turn off a main relay connecting a first battery in the vehicle and a vehicle system when the power-off (IG OFF) state begins, to monitor a state of the first battery storing energy for generating power of the vehicle by maintaining power during a preset first reference time, to be woken up at a wake-up period of the first controller when the first reference time elapses, and to monitor the state of the first battery.

Apparatus and method for controlling vehicle, and vehicle system

A method for charging an electric vehicle may include (a) a step of determining, by a vehicle-side controller, whether to exchange cooling fluid between the vehicle and electric vehicle service equipment (EVSE), when a charge port of the vehicle and a connector of the electric vehicle service equipment are connected together, (b) a step of providing, by the vehicle-side controller, a signal for requesting the exchange of the cooling fluid to a charger-side controller when determining to exchange the cooling fluid, and (c) a step of controlling, by the vehicle-side controller, a cooling line of the vehicle through which cooling fluid of the vehicle circulates, to cause the cooling fluid of the vehicle to flow into a cooling line of the electric vehicle service equipment through the charge port.

Battery charging system for electric vehicle and method for charging the electric vehicle

A battery management system for a vehicle, a battery management method thereof and a vehicle including the same, which can vary a state of charge (SOC) of a battery in accordance with a location of a recharging station are disclosed. The battery management system includes: a position information acquisition unit for acquiring position information of a recharging station and the vehicle; a storage for storing a hilly area recharging station list comprising position information of hilly area recharging stations and learned full SOC values; and a controller for controlling the position information acquisition unit and the storage. The controller checks whether a recharging station where recharging of the vehicle is executed is a hilly area recharging station, and restricts a full SOC in order to avoid restriction of regenerative braking according to downhill road travel, thereby enhancing fuel economy and safety.
