METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR CONTROLLING ELECTRIC MOTOR TORQUE IN A BATTERY ELECTRIC VEHICLE

Methods and systems for a vehicle are provided. A method for a vehicle includes coupling two motors to an axle. Furthermore, the method includes, at each of the two motors, setting a requested motor torque to a permitted motor torque in compliance with a threshold motor power, determining an unmet motor torque as a difference between the requested and the permitted motor torque, and balancing the unmet motor torque, including reducing the permitted motor torque at one or both of the two motors.
