Optimization process in matlab and simulink

Question

Hello, Guys! I'm a beginner matlab user, and i'm trying to start learning optimization in matlab. At the moment i have matlab model of electric vehicle built in simulink, and i want to optimize its speed profile to minimize overall enerqy consumption. As i understand, i cannot optimize it in simulink, and i need to build model in matlab from main equations. I have read existing articles about my problem, and found out that i can use fmincon in optimization toolbox, to solve it. Could you answer me, do i need to built model in matlab or there are ways to optimize my model in simulink?
