- Autonomous-capable Electrified Vehicles are becoming increasingly popular in the field of automotive research. They are being rapidly recognized as being a reliable alternative to completely human controlled vehicles for reducing the probability of incidents occurring due to driver distraction/ limitations. This review paper provides a general framework for modeling an autonomous-capable electrified vehicle highlighting some of the major building blocks associated with such a model. Some of the major relevant modeling tools are also discussed. Furthermore, the paper describes the simulations carried out using multiple test cases incorporating autonomous features of distinct levels.
