A electric vehicle including a plurality of ground engaging members, a frame assembly supported by the plurality of ground engaging members, the frame assembly including a front frame assembly, a middle frame assembly, and a rear frame assembly, a seating area supported by the middle frame assembly, electric powertrain components supported by the frame assembly to provide power to at least one ground engaging member, and a shrouding assembly.

Electric recreational vehicle

A hybrid vehicle may be a series hybrid or a parallel hybrid vehicle. One embodiment of a parallel hybrid vehicle includes an engine, a transmission coupled to the engine, a front drive coupled to the transmission through a prop shaft, a rear drive coupled to the transmission, a traction motor drivingly coupled to the prop shaft, and a battery to operate the traction motor.

Hybrid utility vehicle

Systems and methods for starting and restarting an engine of a vehicle are disclosed. Power systems for an engine are disclosed.

Systems and methods for engine start

A utility vehicle is configured for independently controlling torque at each of the ground-engaging members.

Torque vectoring for utility vehicles

A direct-current (DC) power generation system for a vehicle, a boosting shunt regulator, and a method of regulating the output of an AC generator with the boosting shunt regulator are provided. The boosting shunt regulator includes gated power switches electrically coupled between AC generator contacts and output contacts. A shunt operates the power switches at duty cycles selected to boost the AC voltages output by the AC generator.

Low loss shunt regulator

A power generation system is provided including a power boost regulator operative to provide load matched voltage operation of an AC power source.

Power boost regulator

Vehicles including a plurality of front and rear ground engaging members, a front driveline operatively coupled to a first power source, a rear driveline operatively coupled to a second power source, at least one controller operatively coupled to the first drive system and the second drive system are disclosed. The vehicles may further include a torque request input adapted to be actuatable by an operator of the vehicle. The torque request input may provide an indication of a requested torque to the at least one controller. The at least one controller may, based on the requested torque, command a first output of the first drive system to the at least one front ground engaging member and a second output of the second drive system to the at least one rear ground engaging member. Vehicle drive control systems are also disclosed. Methods of controlling torque and battery management are also disclosed.
