Description
Seonghyeon Kim and Jaesik Yang studied in 2024 how drivers like the feel of an electric car when they press the accelerator, a moment called tip-in. Smooth, satisfying response shapes how good a car feels daily. Fifteen expert drivers compared five designed acceleration profiles in real road tests. Scenarios covered gentle and moderate presses at city speeds and moderate presses at higher speed.
For gentle low-speed presses, drivers liked linear response with small jerk. For stronger presses they preferred a quick initial surge that settles smoothly. At the higher speed, tolerance for sharper jerk rose. Statistical links between feelings and measurable profile features followed. The authors offer concrete guidance for tuning electric drivetrains to human preference rather than engineering habit.
