METHOD OF GENERATING VIRTUAL VIBRATION EFFECT OF INTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINE IN ELECTRIC VEHICLE

A method of generating a virtual internal combustion engine vibration in an electric vehicle includes collecting driving variable information, determining a virtual internal combustion engine vibration characteristic on the basis of the collected driving variable information, determining a vibration torque command having the determined virtual engine vibration characteristic, determining a final motor torque command using a basic motor torque command determined from the collected driving variable information and the determined vibration torque command, and controlling the operation of a vehicle driving motor according to the determined final motor torque command.
