Abstract:
A system for a vehicle includes a transmission, an engine, and a controller communicably coupled to the transmission and the engine. The controller is structured to receive a vehicle operating parameter, receive vehicle operation data during operation of the vehicle, determine that the vehicle is in a coasting state based on the vehicle operation data, and provide a command to control at least one of an engine and the transmission during the coasting state to at least one of optimize the vehicle operating parameter and facilitate and maintain the coasting state.
