ONE PEDAL ROCKING TO FREE AN ELECTRIC VEHICLE FROM A STUCK CONDITION

A “one-pedal rocking mode” for extricating an electric vehicle from a stuck condition is implemented by: receiving, via a human-machine interface (HMI) of the electric vehicle, an indication of a user selection to activate the one-pedal rocking mode; operating the electric vehicle in the one-pedal rocking mode responsive to detecting movement of an accelerator pedal of the electric vehicle; controlling at least one electric motor of the electric vehicle to: (i) apply a forward torque to corresponding drive wheels when the accelerator pedal is in a first pedal position that exceeds a forward threshold, (ii) apply a reverse torque to the corresponding drive wheels when the accelerator pedal is in a second pedal position that is less than or equal to the forward threshold; and exiting the one-pedal rocking mode by switching operations of the electric vehicle to a second operating mode responsive to detecting an exit condition.
