With the desire to decrease fuel consumption and emissions, studies on hybrid electric vehicles have risen throughout the years. There are several studies which focus on driving performance of a hybrid electric vehicle but few of these especially focus on effect of velocity over hybrid electric vehicle fuel consumption. Through this research, finding the effect of velocity on fuel consumption and total trip cost as well as vehicle performance is aimed. For this goal, a mid-size family sedan type of series hybrid electric vehicle including battery, range extender and velocity controller is modelled and simulated with the help of MATLAB/Simulink The modelled vehicle is tested with simulated route from Istanbul to Ankara. The properties of vehicle route are retrieved from Google Earth and the road is also simulated in MATLAB. Both modeling and simulation processes for several velocity values are carried out.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessDriving PerformanceFuel ConsumptionHybrid Electric VehiclesModelingSimulationConference Object383393
