Abstract :
This paper describes a hybrid electric vehicle drive control system under microcomputer control where the propulsion power is shared between a gasoline engine and a dc motor. The control functions have been developed, analyzed, and implemented with highlevel language in a dual Intel 8086 microcomputer system. The drive system has been integrated and tested, and shows excellent results.
