Abstract

A dynamic regenerative braking system (DRBS) for an electrified vehicle having a high voltage (HV) battery system includes a user interface configured to display information and to receive user input for a route selection of the electrified vehicle, a global positioning satellite (GPS)/map data system configured to obtain GPS and map data associated with a current trip of the electrified vehicle, an advanced driver assistance system (ADAS) module having one or more sensors configured to obtain surrounding vehicle data and upcoming road conditions data, and a brake module configured to control a regenerative braking system and provide current road grade data. A controller is programmed to determine an energy efficient navigational route to a destination, which maximizes a power regeneration of the HV battery system via the regenerative braking system, based on the GPS/map data, the surrounding vehicle data, the upcoming road conditions data, and the current road grade data.
