Abstract
A method for estimating energy consumption of a vehicle includes receiving, from a remotely located computing device, standardized energy consumption data corresponding to at least one other vehicle, the standardized energy consumption data corresponding to energy consumption of the at least one other vehicle as a function of speed. The method further includes generating a scaling factor by comparing the energy consumption data corresponding to the energy consumption of the vehicle as a function of speed with the standardized energy consumption data. The method further includes scaling the standardized energy consumption data to generate a profile of the energy consumption efficiency of the vehicle. The method further includes generating a signal to selectively adjust at least one of a speed of the vehicle, at least one route characteristic of a portion of a route being traversed by the vehicle, and a torque demand of the vehicle.
