A military vehicle includes a frame, axle assemblies coupled with the frame that are configured to be driven to transport the military vehicle, an internal combustion engine configured to drive the axle assemblies, an electric motor configured to drive the axle assemblies, and processing circuitry. The processing circuitry is configured to operate the military vehicle according to different modes by generating control signals for the internal combustion engine and the electric motor and providing the control signals to the internal combustion engine and the electric motor. The modes include an economy mode, a summon mode, an environmentally reactive control mode, a weaponry status control mode, a boost mode, an escape mode, an optimized idle control mode, a transmission control mode, a supplemental electric vehicle mode, and a convoy mode.

A vehicle includes an engine, an electric generator, a power transmission device, a clutch, and a power generation controller. The electric generator is coupled to the engine. The power transmission device is configured to transmit driving power of the engine to a vehicle's driving wheel. The clutch is provided in the power transmission device and switchable between an engaged state in which the driving power of the engine is transmitted to the driving wheel and a disengaged state in which the driving power of the engine is not transmitted to the driving wheel. The power generation controller is configured to drive the engine and cause the electric generator to generate electric power by using the driving power of the engine. The clutch is switched to the disengaged state when a driver who drives the vehicle is determined to intend to stop the vehicle for a predetermined period or longer.

A vehicle control device includes a processor, a memory and a sensor that acquires surrounding environment information of the vehicle, a host vehicle position estimation unit that estimates the route of the vehicle, a surrounding environment storage unit that stores the surrounding environment information and the route estimated by the host vehicle position estimation unit in association with each other, a vehicle-speed threshold determination unit that sets a vehicle-speed threshold value when the surrounding environment storage unit stores the surrounding environment information and the route in association with each other, and determines whether or not a current vehicle speed exceeds the vehicle-speed threshold value when the surrounding environment storage unit stores the surrounding environment information and the route, and a warning unit that performs a notification of an excess of the vehicle speed when the vehicle-speed threshold determination unit determines that the vehicle speed exceeds the vehicle-speed threshold value.

An emergency brake system for a heavy-duty vehicle, comprising: a pressure sensor arrangement configured to issue a first signal, S1, upon determination that the pressure in a regular brake circuit is zero or below a predefined pressure threshold value, a speed sensor configured to issue a second signal, S2, upon determination that the speed of the heavy-duty vehicle exceeds a predefined speed threshold, a parking-brake sensor configured to issue a third signal, S3, upon determination that the parking brake is in an applied state, a retarder brake configured to decelerate the heavy-duty vehicle upon activation of the retarder brake, a processing circuitry configured to activate the retarder brake upon receiving all of said three signals S1, S2 and S3.

The in-vehicle control device is mounted on a motor vehicle including a shift mechanism having a parking position for performing a shift lock on an axle, an electric parking brake for applying a braking force to a wheel connected to the axle, and an electric motor capable of inputting and outputting power to and from the axle. The vehicle control device performs shock reduction control for suppressing a shock generated in the vehicle by outputting torque corresponding to the inclination angle of the vehicle from the electric motor when releasing the shift lock, and determines whether to perform the shock reduction control when releasing the shift lock according to a state when activating the shift lock and a state after activating the shift lock.
