DRIVE MODE GUIDE SYSTEM FOR VEHICLE AND METHOD THEREOF
First Claim
1. A drive mode guide system for a vehicle provided with a plurality of drive modes, comprising:
- an input unit configured to receive data input by the user, wherein the data input by the user is destination data;
a road information storage unit configured to store information related to a road state;
a real-time information storage unit configured receive and store environmental information in real time;
a vehicle information storage unit configured to store information related to the vehicle;
a control unit configured extract a possible-traveling path and a drive mode for the vehicle based on the real-time information, vehicle information and road state information; and
an output unit configured to output the possible-traveling path and the drive mode received from the control unit,wherein the control unit is configured to;
extracts the possible-traveling path for the vehicle from the destination data received from the input unit,extracts an expected consumed energy flow for the possible-traveling path from information received from the road information storage unit, the real-time information storage unit, and the vehicle information storage unit, andextracts a drive mode suitable for the expected consumed energy flow for the possible-traveling path and the traveling information from the plurality of drive modes.

Abstract
Disclosed is drive mode guide system for a vehicle provided with a plurality of drive modes. More specifically, a road information storage unit stores information related a road state. A real-time information storage unit receives and stores environmental information in real time. A vehicle information storage unit stores information related to the vehicle. A control unit then extracts a possible-traveling path and a drive mode and an outputs the possible-traveling path and a suggested drive mode received from the control unit based on the information stored in the road information storage unit, the real-time information storage unit, and the vehicle information storage unit.
