In order to solve the problems of insufficient accuracy for theoretical models and data-driven models for objective drivability evaluation requiring a large amount of data, an objective drivability evaluation method based on a hierarchical mixture model is proposed. First, a novel method of constructing a drivability evaluation system is developed, which combined by work breakdown structure (WBS) and analytic hierarchy process (AHP). Then, downshift condition is taken as a case study, and the subdivision condition is identified based on the hybrid mixture model. What's more, the drivability evaluation indexes of downshift condition are analyzed to establish the evaluation system of drivability.

In order to improve the driving experience of drivers and the efficiency of vehicle development, a method of objective drivability for passenger car powertrain is proposed, which is based on prior knowledge, principal component analysis (PCA) and SMART principle. First, drivability parameters of powertrain for passenger cars are determined according to working principle of powertrain, including engine torque, engine speed, gearbox position, accelerate pedal, brake pedal, steering wheel angle, longitudinal acceleration and lateral acceleration, etc. The drivability quantitative index system is designed based on field test data, prior knowledge and SMART principles. Then, D-S evidence theory and sliding window method are applied to identify objective drivability evaluation conditions of powertrain for passenger cars, including static gearshift conditions, starting conditions, creep conditions, tip-in, tip out, upshift conditions, acceleration, downshift conditions and de-acceleration.
