Abstract
A method for controlling power to wheels in a vehicle, the vehicle having an electric storage device for providing power to an electric machine. The method includes determining a first power demand for the vehicle based at least in part on a driver input, determining a second power demand based at least in part on the magnitude of the first power demand, determining a power adjustment based on at least one condition of the battery, and applying the power adjustment to the second power demand, thereby generating a wheel power request.
