Abstract

Systems and methods are provided to allow a temporary power boost beyond a restricted power output associated with a restricted operating mode of an electric vehicle to be provided to accommodate challenging operating conditions. A method includes, when the electric vehicle is in the restricted operating mode, receiving an operator propulsion command equal to or exceeding a propulsion command threshold. The powertrain of the electric vehicle is commanded to generate a first power output corresponding to the operator propulsion command where the first power output is lower than or equal to the restricted power output. When the operator propulsion command is equal to or exceeding the propulsion command threshold and the actual speed of the electric vehicle is below a speed threshold, the powertrain of the electric vehicle is commanded to generate a second power output exceeding the restricted power output in response to the operator propulsion command.
