Abstract :
A safe Torque Vectoring function is applied to an electric vehicle with a two front motors drivetrain concept. The function has been embedded in a lean and scalable functional architecture adaptable to various drivetrain concepts. The Torque Vectoring function comprises an LPV control algorithm with good performance even in extreme test cases. The controller can be parameterised for case specific performance. The implementation of functional safety requirements is presented for one safety goal.
