Abstract
The combined use of the electric tractor in high-speed travel and high-torque towing must involve a trip range estimation and an optimal driving behavior of the vehicle. The paper proposes an estimation method based on the measured usable energy reserve and on prediction of the power consumption for the two selected operating modes: rolling and towing. As driver’s interface will be used an interactive graphical display which can be used for the initial settings and further adjustments of some of the working parameters. The demonstrations are sustained by trip recordings used for calibration process and for error mitigation.
