Filed:

Dec 11, 2009
Appl. No.:

12/636122
Inventors:

Sanjay Khunger - Brighton MI, US
Daryl L. Carr - Canton MI, US
Assignee:

GENERAL MOTORS LLC - Detroit MI
International Classification:

G06F 19/00

US Patent:

20110288737, Nov 24, 2011
Filed:

May 19, 2010
Appl. No.:

12/782936
Inventors:

Daryl L. Carr - Canton MI, US
Assignee:

GENERAL MOTORS LLC - Detroit MI
International Classification:

G06F 7/00
G01C 21/36
US Classification:

701 99
Abstract:

A method and system of operating a multimodal vehicle includes determining a vehicle route between a starting point and an ending point, establishing one or more waypoints along the determined vehicle route based on one or more factors such as topography or road classification, and changing the propulsion mode of the vehicle at each of the established waypoints. This can be used, for example, to help optimize the use of different propulsion modes such as gasoline and battery power to thereby increase energy utilization efficiency.
