1. A vehicle comprising:
- a powertrain including an electric machine and an engine; and
a controller programmed to for each of a plurality of segments defining a route (i) operate the powertrain according to a predicted vehicle speed profile for the segment associated with one of a group of driving zone types each defining a different characteristic speed profile and vehicle location, and (ii) in response to deviation between the predicted speed profile and a measured speed profile, update the predicted speed profile associated with the driving zone type.

Abstract
A vehicle includes a powertrain having an electric machine and an engine. The vehicle also includes a controller programmed to operate the powertrain according to a predicted vehicle speed profile for a predetermined route segmented according to a group of driving zone types, wherein each driving zone type is associated with a different characteristic speed profile shape and vehicle location. The controller is further programmed to update the predicted speed profile for a those segments showing deviation in response to deviation between the predicted speed profile and a measured speed profile.

6. A method of operating a vehicle comprising:
-
classifying, based on historical driving data, each of a series of segments of a predetermined route into one of a group of driving zone types; generating a predicted speed profile for each segment using a processor corresponding to a particular one of the driving zone types; and updating the predicted speed profile for each segment having a deviation between a measured speed profile and the predicted speed profile. - View Dependent Claims (7, 8, 9, 10)
