A clutch pedal for an electrically operated clutch system simulates the pedal forces of a hydraulically actuated clutch. An operating element is pivotably supported on a mounting so as to move along an operating path between a non-operating position and an operating position. A restoring spring applies a force towards the non-operating position. At least one friction element rubs against a curved friction surface when the operating element is pivoting along the operating path. The friction element is spring-loaded against the friction surface. During operation between the operating position and the non-operating position, the friction element moves over a cam lobe of the friction surface. The friction element is elastically movable radially in relation to the curved friction surface.

In the vehicle body speed estimation device and a vehicle body speed estimation method, a controller determines whether a deviation of at least two of the wheel speeds among the wheel speeds is within a first prescribed range. The controller switches a method for selecting the wheel speed used for estimating the vehicle body speed between a first method and a second method when a sign of a drive torque that is applied to each of the wheels is reversed and the deviation of at least two of the wheel speeds among the wheel speeds is within the first prescribed range.

A reaction force control system for a pedal that is configured to stably operate a vehicle in which an operating mode can be shifted between normal and one-pedal modes, without requiring a complicated operation, and without disturbing a driver. An operating mode is selected from a one-pedal mode in which a drive force and a brake force are controlled by manipulating an accelerator pedal, and a normal mode in which drive force is controlled by manipulating the accelerator pedal, and the brake force is controlled by manipulating the brake pedal. Reaction force applied to the accelerator pedal is increased for a predetermined period of time when shifting from one of the operating modes to the other one, and thereafter the reaction force is adjusted in accordance with a position of the accelerator pedal in the other one of the operating modes.

An off-road vehicle includes a driveline, a control system, and a braking system. The driveline provides driveline power and driveline brake power to a first tractive assembly and/or a second tractive assembly. The control system stores vehicle information, determines driving instructions based on environment data, and determines speed references for tractive elements of the first and second tractive assemblies based on the driving instructions and the vehicle information. The braking system includes brakes and a braking subsystem. The brake subsystem operates the brakes to provide brake power to one or more components of the first and/or second tractive assemblies.
