SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR DYNAMICALLY ADJUSTING COASTING REGENERATION BASED ON ENVIRONMENTAL INFORMATION

A system that implements a dynamically adjusting coasting regeneration for an electrified vehicle includes an electrified powertrain, first and second sensors and a controller. The electrified powertrain includes an electric motor that provides drive torque to a driveline, the electric motor further providing regenerative braking energy to a battery system during a deceleration event. The first and second sensors sense dynamic, static and pseudo-static artifact data. The controller is configured to receive signals from the first and second sensors; determine first candidate deceleration rates based on the first signal; determine second candidate deceleration rates based on the second signal; select a preferred deceleration rate from the first and second candidate deceleration rates; and provide a torque request to the electrified powertrain indicative of the preferred deceleration rate.
