A refueling vehicle may have a front fuel dispensing module with at least one or more hoses for dispensing fuel product from the fuel tank to an external tank. The front fuel dispensing module is located between the cab and the fuel tank containing the fuel product.

The present technology relates to a vehicle that enables to improve designability while avoiding deterioration of safety and functionality of the vehicle.

The vehicle includes: a front line extending in a vehicle width direction on a front surface of a body; and a headlight arranged on left and right of the front surface, divided vertically by the front line, and configured to output a low beam from a portion above the front line and output a high beam from a portion below the front line. The present technology can be applied to, for example, a vehicle.

A vehicular exterior door system includes a door handle assembly configured for mounting at a door handle region of a vehicle door of a vehicle. The door handle assembly includes a pocket lighting module comprising at least one light emitting diode operable to emit light to illuminate a pocket region of the door handle region. The door handle assembly includes a plurality of touch sensors linearly arranged along a handle portion and generating sensor data based on detection of touch at the respective touch sensor. The vehicular exterior door system, with the door handle assembly mounted at the door handle region, and responsive to processing at the processor of the sensor data generated by individual touch sensors of the plurality of touch sensors, determines a touch event at the door handle assembly and, responsive to the determined touch event, unlocks the vehicle door.

A vehicle lighting device provides two or more lighting functions using the same exit surface of a light guide panel. A first lighting function is a vehicle lighting function such as a rear tail light function or rear combination lamp function (e.g., brake signal, turn signal, and backup light) provided by a first light source comprising a light emitting diode (LED) light source inputted at an edge surface of the light guide panel. At least one more lighting function is implemented by a second light source outputting light toward a rear surface of the light guide panel and controlled to operate in accordance with one or more second light functions including one or more of: at least part of another vehicle lighting function, and a display including one or more display elements presenting at least one of: a designated pattern, a symbol, a pictogram, and an animation.

A vehicle system can include a plurality of portable devices, a vehicle, and a control system. The plurality of portable devices can be configured to be positioned variously about a scene. The vehicle can include a chassis, a cab coupled to the chassis, a body coupled to the chassis, a vehicle lighting device coupled to at least one of the cab or the body, and an aerial device rotatably coupled to at least one of the chassis or the body. The control system can be configured to control an operation of at least one of the vehicle lighting device, the aerial device, or the plurality of portable devices based on a position of the plurality of portable devices and the vehicle at the scene.

Aspects of the disclosure provide a method of facilitating communications from an autonomous vehicle to a user. For instance, a method may include, while attempting to pick up the user and prior to the user entering an vehicle, inputting a current location of the vehicle and map information into a model in order to identify a type of communication action for communicating a location of the vehicle to the user; enabling a first communication based on the type of the communication action; determining whether the user has responded to the first communication from received sensor data; and enabling a second communication based on the determination of whether the user has responded to the communication.
