Cover Story: This paper presents a method for improving energy efficiency and driving performance in a two-speed transmission all-wheel-drive (AWD) system through torque distribution and powertrain specification optimization. Based on vehicle simulations conducted in MATLAB/Simulink, a torque distribution strategy between the front and rear axles was developed using fuzzy logic, considering energy efficiency and driving stability. Furthermore, multi-objective optimization was performed using a surrogate model trained via MATLAB parallel simulations. When the optimization results were applied to various vehicle specifications, energy efficiency and acceleration performance improvements were observed compared to a baseline vehicle without optimization.
