Abstract

Available space optimised packaging of the drivetrain components can lead to unconventional wheel axle loads, which have to be taken into account for the design of the vehicles’ dynamics. The BMW Group Research and Technology developed in cooperation with the German Aerospace Institute (DLR) and the Institute of Control Systems (IRS) within the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) a control concept for torque vectoring. In spite of the challenge of high rear axle loads, attractive and at the same time safe ride characteristics are achieved by utilisation of independent distribution of drive and brake wheel torques.
