Abstract
A method for controlling torque output of an electric motor of an electric vehicle. The electric vehicle having at least one ground engaging member. The method includes: receiving an accelerator position; determining a desired torque from the accelerator position; determining a varying torque based at least in part on the desired torque; and controlling the electric motor to apply the varying torque. An electric vehicle having a vehicle control unit and an inverter having memory storing computer executable instructions for executing the method is also disclosed.
Claims23
A method for controlling torque output of an electric motor of an electric vehicle, the electric vehicle having at least one ground engaging member, the method comprising:
