An engine damper includes a drive disc having a plurality of studs circumferentially arranged to be received in a flex plate and a driven disc connected to the drive disc by a resilient member. The driven disc defines a plurality of circumferentially arranged first holes arranged in a first pattern. A hub is configured to non-rotatably connect to a shaft. The hub defines a plurality of second holes circumferentially arranged in a second pattern that corresponds to the first pattern. Connectors are disposed in the first and second holes to connect the hub to the driven disc.

A through the road (TTR) hybridization strategy is proposed to facilitate introduction of hybrid electric vehicle technology in a significant portion of current and expected trucking fleets. In some cases, the technologies can be retrofitted onto an existing vehicle (e.g., a truck, a tractor unit, a trailer, a tractor-trailer configuration, at a tandem, etc.). In some cases, the technologies can be built into new vehicles. In some cases, one vehicle may be built or retrofitted to operate in tandem with another and provide the hybridization benefits contemplated herein. By supplementing motive forces delivered through a primary drivetrain and fuel-fed engine with supplemental torque delivered at one or more electrically-powered drive axles, improvements in overall fuel efficiency and performance may be delivered, typically without significant redesign of existing components and systems that have been proven in the trucking industry.

A hybrid-electric powertrain includes an internal combustion engine, a transmission, and an electric machine, where the electric machine is connected to the transmission for transmitting torque. The transmission has a transmission housing, within which there is disposed an output-side gear set assembly, and also a transmission housing cover disposed on an output side of the transmission as seen in an axial direction. The electric machine has a stator, a rotor, a rotor shaft connected to the rotor for conjoint rotation, and an electric machine housing. In addition, the electric machine has a connection housing for connecting the electric machine to the transmission housing. The rotor shaft of the electric machine is disposed parallel to a transmission input shaft of the transmission.

A military vehicle include a driveline. The driveline includes a first driver including an engine, an energy storage system, an accessory drive coupled to the engine, a transmission coupled to at least one of the front axle or the rear axle, and a second driver coupled to the engine and the transmission. The accessory drive includes a plurality of accessories and a first motor. The first motor is electrically coupled to the energy storage system. The first motor is positioned to facilitate selectively driving the plurality of accessories. The second driver includes a second motor electrically coupled to the energy storage system.
