Original Abstract Submitted
A system for thermal control of a battery system of a vehicle includes a heating control module configured to control a temperature of the battery system. The heating control module is configured to receive a request to put the vehicle into a high performance mode, and based on the request, determine the temperature of the battery system and put the vehicle into the high performance mode. The heating control module is also configured to determine a target battery temperature based on an environmental condition around the vehicle, and during operation of the vehicle in the high performance mode, automatically control the temperature of the battery system to maintain the temperature of the battery system proximate to the target battery temperature to optimize performance of the vehicle.
