Abstract

Methods, apparatuses, and systems for controlling regenerative braking of a vehicle are disclosed. A user interface facilitates a user to provide an input to select an operating mode for the vehicle, the operating mode selected from one of selectable modes comprising: (i) manually controlled regenerative braking mode and (ii) automatically controlled regenerative braking mode. When the (i) mode is selected, the controller applies a scaling factor to the regenerative torque capability curve of the vehicle based on additional user input. When the (ii) mode is selected, the controller automatically applies the scaling factor based on one or more traction control events and environmental factors.
