Conventional powwertrain efficiency:-

The engine generates power by converting chemical energy stored into the mechanical energy by the process of combustion. This process of energy conversion also has an efficiency and the energy input is in the form of fuel consumption.

Driver :
It is modeled using a ‘Driver’ block, which is a basic PI controller that generates accelerator and brake pedal outputs to match the desired and actual vehicle speeds.
Engine Control :
Trottle and idle speed controller.
Engine :
Vehicle Dynamics :
Meq(dVveh/dt) = ηtλtotRwTm−(12p⋅A⋅Cd⋅(Vveh+Vw∈d)2+Cr⋅M⋅g⋅cos(θ)+M⋅g⋅sin(θ))
Governing Equation.

In this graph we see the transmission input and transmission out will fluctuates up and down as increasing speed and time.
In this the as comparing brake of vehicle the accelaration of vehicle is more so the brake torque is min required. and the gear shifting is also required wrt time.
In this the gear shifting is required as increase vehicle speed. as shifting order is gear1, then gear2, then gear3, and then gear4.
Engine fuel map :
Here torque and the speed is inversely proportional
In this engine torque, Engine power, engine fuel rate and engine fuel consumption is increase increasing wrt time.
