Studying Toyota Prius Vehicle System by Simulation with Advisor

Abstract

Nowadays, reducing fuel consumption and greenhouse gases are top priorities for automotive manufactures because of environmental hazards and running out fossil fuels all over the world. These reasons are the key factors that lead to the creation of hybrid cars. This article discusses the intervention in hybrid vehicle’s content parameters, which were conducted on the simulation software ADVISOR, by changing the value of the vehicle according to certain rules. We also use the Vietnamese’s driving cycle of to set the ADVISOR program up. The simulation results showed that we have successfully re-established Toyota Prius’s driving cycle using Vietnam’s Road condition and lowest the fuel consumption and emission with the setup driving cycle, by changing the parameters of the car.
