ELECTRIC VEHICLE
DRIVE
June 4, 2026
An electric vehicle includes a first motor connected to one of front and rear wheels, a second motor connected to the other wheels, a battery exchanging power with the motors, a clutch connecting and disconnecting the first motor and the wheels, and an electronic control unit. When braking force is required under a condition where maximum input power to the battery is limited, the control unit turns off the clutch to disconnect the first motor, and then controls the first motor in power running and the second motor in regeneration to achieve braking.
