Liquefied petroleum gas was used as a fuel to supply the ICE. The test conditions were defined by a special driving cycle simulating urban driving.<strong> Results. </strong>Time series plots of selected parameters of electric motor, electrochemical battery pack, range extender generator and active load system. <strong>Practical value.</strong></em> <em>Among the considered control strategies of EREV powertrain, the energy balance of the electrochemical battery is negative for a purely electric mode, significantly positive for continuous range extenders (REXs) operation mode and moderately positive for the mode with REX activation only in dynamic states. </em></p>}, number={1}, journal={Electrical Engineering & Electromechanics}, author={Lasocki, J. and Krawczyk, P. and Kopczyński, A. and Roszczyk, P. and Hajduga, A.}, year={2022}, month={Feb.}, pages={70–76} }
