Abstract
A vehicle power system may include a controller programmed to output an electric only range indicator based on a change in capacity of a traction battery derived from open-loop and closed-loop estimates of change in state of charge of the traction battery. The change in capacity may be proportional to a ratio of the open-loop estimate to the closed-loop estimate. The closed-loop estimate may contain information indicative of the change in capacity. The open-loop estimate may contain information indicative of an initial capacity of the traction battery.
