A method for controller vehicle propulsion. The method includes identifying at least one route characteristic of a portion of a most probable path, determining a vehicle energy consumption profile for a vehicle based on at least historical data indicating energy consumption of the vehicle for at least a portion of a route previously traversed by the vehicle having at least one route characteristic corresponding to the at least one route characteristic of the portion of the most probable path, and determining, for the most probable path, a route energy consumption profile based on the at least one route characteristic of the portion of the most probable path and the vehicle energy consumption profile. The method also includes determining a target vehicle speed profile based on the at least one route characteristic and the vehicle energy consumption profile and selectively controlling vehicle propulsion based on the target vehicle speed profile.

The disclosure includes a system and method for reconfiguring a vehicle based on one or more preferences of a first user without the first user directly providing an input to the vehicle to reconfigure the vehicle. The method may include wirelessly receiving first user profile data at a vehicle. The first user profile data may be associated with a first user. The first user profile data may describe how one or more settings of the vehicle should be configured for the first user. Upon receipt of the first user profile data, the vehicle may be configured in accordance with second user profile data describing how the one or more settings of the vehicle should be configured for a second user. The method may include reconfiguring the one or more settings of the vehicle based on the first user profile data so that the vehicle is reconfigured for the first user.

A method and a device for displaying vehicle parameters, which comprise at least a first and a second parameter is provided. A value of the first parameter and a value of the second parameter are determined and the value of the first parameter and the value of the second parameter are displayed on a display area. In addition, the value of the first parameter is changed and the change in the value of the first parameter at least in a first portion is converted into a change in the value of the second parameter. A first display element, via which the conversion of the change in the value of the first parameter into the change in the value of the second parameter is depicted graphically, is created on the display area.

A driving/braking force control apparatus includes a front-wheel longitudinal force generator, a rear-wheel longitudinal force generator, a tire slip angle output unit, a tire lateral force output unit, a slip ratio output unit, a tire lateral force change rate output unit, a target yaw moment setting unit, and a driving/braking force distribution control unit. The driving/braking force distribution control unit performs a control of an output allocation ratio between the front-wheel longitudinal force generator and the rear-wheel longitudinal force generator based on a target value of an additional yaw moment, a change rate of a tire lateral force of a front wheel to a slip ratio of the front wheel, and a change rate of a tire lateral force of a rear wheel to a slip ratio of the rear wheel.

A system for controlling an overtake maneuver of a control vehicle includes a controller. The controller is structured to: receive at least one overtake parameter associated with a control vehicle for overtaking a front vehicle in a vehicle lane; receive an indication of a direction of traffic in an overtake lane that is adjacent to the vehicle lane; receive an indication that the at least one overtake parameter satisfies at least one condition according to the direction of the traffic in the overtake lane; and in response to the at least one overtake parameter satisfying the at least one condition according to the direction of traffic in the overtake lane, execute an overtake maneuver by adjusting at least one parameter of the control vehicle or providing a command to an operator of the control vehicle to execute the overtake maneuver.

A driving control method is performed to execute a lane-change control for controlling a host vehicle to autonomously change lanes from a first lane to an adjacent second lane using a processor of a driving control device that controls vehicle speed and steering of the host vehicle traveling in the first lane in an autonomous driving mode. The processor determines that the lane-change control can be executed upon determining that the other vehicle has been detected in a detection zone of the second lane, based on a detection result of a sensor. The processor determines that the lane-change control cannot be executed upon determining that the other has not been detected within the detection zone of the second lane. The processor outputs information regarding whether the lane-change control can be executed.

A system for controlling an overtake maneuver of a control vehicle includes a controller. The controller is structured to: receive at least one overtake parameter associated with a control vehicle for overtaking a front vehicle in a vehicle lane; receive an indication of one or more operating parameters associated with an oncoming vehicle in an overtake lane that is adjacent to the vehicle lane, wherein a direction of traffic of the overtake lane is opposite of the vehicle lane; determine, according to the at least one overtake parameter and the one or more operating parameters, an encounter time between the control vehicle and the oncoming vehicle; and execute, according to the encounter time, an overtake maneuver by adjusting a parameter of the control vehicle or providing a command to an operator of the control vehicle to execute the overtake maneuver.
