Abstract: The extender range electric vehicle (EREV) is an effective way to solve the “mileage anxiety” of pure electric vehicles, and the fuel economy of EREV is the key point of energy optimization. This paper designed an adaptive real-time optimal energy management strategy for EREV. Firstly, an improved shooting algorithm is proposed, which can determine the range of the equivalent factor (EF) according to the power configuration parameters of the vehicle, and then the secant method is used to quickly calculate the initial value of the EF. Secondly, from the perspective of energy flow, the intrinsic operation mechanism of equivalent consumption minimization strategy (ECMS) control strategy is revealed, and the working relationship between the five working modes of EREV is clarified. Thirdly, based on the car navigation and geographic location information system, the EF is periodically updated to achieve effective maintenance of the battery state of charge (SOC), so as to obtain the optimal power allocation. Finally, The fuel economy and real-time performance of the proposed energy management strategy are simulated and compared. To verify fuel economy, the rule-based control strategy and the power following control strategy were used as comparison. The results show that the proposed control strategy has better fuel economy and adaptability. To verify real-time performance, the proportional integral derivative ECMS (PID-ECMS) and shooting method ECMS (S-ECMS) were used as comparison. The results show that the proposed strategy is better in both fuel economy and real-time performance.
