Vehicles, systems, and methods for shifting a manual transmission into neutral during autonomous braking are provided. An exemplary system for shifting a vehicle into neutral during autonomous braking includes a manual transmission for transferring power from an engine to a differential using gears manually selected by a gear selector. Also, the system includes an actuator mounted to the vehicle and to the gear selector. Further, the system includes a controller coupled to the actuator and configured to direct the actuator to force the gear selector into neutral during an autonomous braking event.

While an engine (drive source) is being driven, when a long pressing operation (selection operation on a predetermined shift range) on an N-range button via a SBW shifter is executed, an engine drive/stop button blinks to notify a driver (step S1 and step S2). During the blinking of the engine drive/stop button, when the engine drive/stop button is pressed and the engine (drive source) is stopped, a neutral range is maintained without being switched to a parking range automatically (step 3 and step 4).

A hybrid vehicle includes: an engine; a driving motor/generator connected to an output shaft of the engine; a connection unit disposed between the engine and the driving motor/generator to separate the engine from the driving motor/generator when the engine is stopped and to connect the engine to the driving motor/generator when the engine is operated; a manual transmission connected to the driving motor/generator, for directly varying gear ratio without using an engine clutch according to a driving speed and a torque generated by the driving motor/generator and/or the engine; a position sensor for detecting a position of a manual gearshift lever; and a central control unit connected to the engine, the driving motor/generator, the connection unit, and the manual transmission. In order to perform a gearshift of the manual transmission, the central control unit separates the connection unit disposed between the engine and the driving motor/generator when the vehicle is stopped or driven at a preset speed or lower or connects the connection unit when the vehicle is driven at the preset speed or higher, and controls the driving motor/generator and/or the engine according to the detected position of the manual gearshift lever to adjust a speed of an input shaft of the manual transmission.

An engine-type industrial vehicle includes: an engine; a power transmission configured to transmit a driving force of the engine to a driving wheel; a controller configured to adjust the driving force; a travel direction determiner configured to determine a travel direction of the engine-type industrial vehicle; and an object detector configured to detect a position of an object in the travel direction of the engine-type industrial vehicle. The power transmission is switchable between a driving force transmission state and a driving force non-transmission state. The controller causes a state of the engine-type industrial vehicle to be in a travel start prohibition state, when the object detector detects the object and a detection direction of the object matches the travel direction, in a case where a vehicle speed of the engine-type industrial vehicle is equal to or less than a stop determination threshold.
