    Abstract: Systems and apparatuses include one or more processing circuits including one or more memory devices coupled to one or more processors. The one or more memory devices are configured to store instructions thereon that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to: receive a parameter regarding operation of a first vehicle of a first platoon; compare the parameter to a first predetermined threshold; responsive to determining that the parameter satisfies the first predetermined threshold, determine an exit parameter for the first vehicle; and cause the first vehicle to exit the first platoon based on the exit parameter.

    Abstract: A method includes receiving an indication regarding a deceleration event for a vehicle, remapping a response of a prime mover of the vehicle from following a first response curve to following a deceleration response curve in response to (i) the deceleration event and (ii) a speed of the vehicle being greater than a speed threshold, and activating an output of the prime mover to accelerate the vehicle at a relatively lesser amount of depression of an accelerator from a non-depressed state of the accelerator than prior to the deceleration event in response to the accelerator being engaged by an operator following the deceleration event.

    Abstract: A control system for a vehicle includes an engine controller operable to determine a requested engine torque in response to a cruise control set command and a cruise control offset value, determine an engine torque command in response to the requested engine torque and a torque limit, and control operation of an engine in response to the engine torque command. The control system also includes a platooning controller operable to determine and provide to the engine controller the cruise control set command, the cruise control offset value and the torque limit effective to cause the engine controller to control the engine to provide a desired following distance between the vehicle and a second vehicle.
