Patent ID: 11260757

Abstract:
A method for assisting a power-intensive driving maneuver of an ego vehicle propelled by an electric motor fed from an energy-storage device includes predicting a power-intensive driving maneuver of the ego vehicle, ascertaining a peak-power profile that is needed for a complete execution of the predicted driving maneuver, and determining an available propulsive power of the ego vehicle. The method further includes ascertaining whether the available propulsive power is sufficient for the peak-power profile and, if the available propulsive power is sufficient for the peak-power profile, indicating a recommendation for execution of the predicted driving maneuver. If the available power is not sufficient for the peak-power profile, the method further includes ascertaining whether the available propulsive power is sufficient for a restricted peak-power profile that is needed for a restricted execution of the predicted driving maneuver, indicating a recommendation for restricted execution of the predicted driving maneuver if the available propulsive power is sufficient for the restricted peak-power profile, and indicating a recommendation for non-execution of the predicted driving maneuver if the available propulsive power is not sufficient for the restricted peak-power profile.
