Abstract: A system receives an image identified as related to a charging location and including at least one viewpoint of the charging point and analyzes the image to determine if the charging point is currently in use based at least in part on the presence of a vehicle at the charging point in the image. The system determines projected usage time of a charging point determined to be in use, based on at least one characteristic of the vehicle and updates a usage set indicating real-time usage of the charging point based on the projected usage time.

Abstract: A vehicle includes an engine and a controller programmed to, responsive to an estimated oil dilution level of the engine exceeding a first threshold, issue commands such that regenerative braking is inhibited to increase a temperature of the engine, and responsive to the estimated oil dilution level falling below the first threshold, discontinue issuing the commands.

Abstract: A vehicle includes a controller that prompts a user to confirm a willingness to accept a reduced maximum acceleration or speed responsive to user confirmation of a desire to increase an electric drive range by a user selected amount. The controller further operates a propulsion system with the reduced maximum acceleration or speed to increase the electric drive range responsive to user confirmation of the willingness.

Abstract: An electrified vehicle includes an engine configured to selectively apply propulsive torque to wheels of a first axle of the vehicle, a first electric machine configured to selectively apply propulsive torque to the wheels of the first axle of the vehicle, a second electric machine configured to selectively apply propulsive torque to wheels of a second axle of the vehicle, a traction battery electrically coupled to the first and second electric machines, and a controller configured to control engine torque, first electric machine torque, and second electric machine torque to provide a driver demand torque at the wheels of the first and second axles. The controller allocates torque between the first and second electric machines based on associated combined losses of the first and second electric machines and maintaining the torque of the first and second electric machines in the same direction.

Abstract: A vehicle includes an audio transducer and a controller. The controller is configured to, in response to a state of charge (SOC) of a battery crossing a charge level threshold (CLT) set by a user of the vehicle, activate the audio transducer to generate an indication that the SOC has crossed the CLT and that is defined by data provided by the user and linked with the CLT according to a rule specified by the user.

Abstract: A method according to an exemplary aspect of the present disclosure includes, among other things, controlling charging of a battery pack of an electrified vehicle including prioritizing charging using a wired charging system over a wireless charging system if power is available from both the wired charging system and the wireless charging system.
