An axle assembly having an input shaft, an output shaft, and an interaxle differential unit. The interaxle differential unit includes first and second side gears, a case, and a pinion gear that is rotatably disposed on a pinion pin. The case extends from the input shaft. The pinion pin extends from the case and is spaced apart from the input shaft.

A power delivery system includes a turbocharger assist device and an inverter. The turbocharger assist device is mechanically connected to a turbocharger that is operably coupled to an engine, and is configured to generate electric current based on rotation of a rotor of the turbocharger. The inverter is electrically connected to the turbocharger assist device via a bus, and is configured to receive the electric current generated by the turbocharger assist device via the bus and supply the electric current to power a load.

A bracket assembly for use in a vehicle. The bracket assembly includes one or more first center bearing brackets, one or more plates, and one or more attachment members. At least a portion of the one or more plates are connected to at least a portion of the first center bearing bracket and to at least a portion of a body or frame of a vehicle. Additionally, at least a portion of the one or more attachment members are connected to at least a portion of the first center bearing bracket, to at least a portion of the one or more plates, and/or to at least a portion of the body or frame of the vehicle.

An axle assembly having an input shaft, an output shaft, and an interaxle differential unit. The interaxle differential unit includes a first side gear, a second side gear, a spider, at least one pinion gear, and a case. The case encircles the first side gear and the spider and has an integral drive gear.

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.
