A vehicle includes a chassis coupled to a wheel and having a first portion and a second portion, and a cab supported by the first portion of the chassis. The cab includes a tunnel configured to receive at least partially receive the first portion of the chassis and a seat supported within an interior of the cab and having a seat support and a backrest. An uppermost surface of the tunnel is arranged at a tunnel height that is lower than a support height of the seat support. The vehicle further includes a body supported by the second portion of the chassis. The first portion of the chassis includes a frame extension or an inward-offset frame rail configuration and the second portion of the chassis comprises a first frame rail and a second frame rail.

Vehicle cab systems and methods

A refuse vehicle includes a motor, a battery, a pedal, and processing circuitry. The motor consumes electrical energy transport the refuse vehicle, or is back-driven to generate electrical energy and provide regenerative braking. The processing circuitry obtains an amount of depression from the pedal, and compares the amount of depression to a transition point. In response to the amount of depression of the pedal exceeding the transition point, the processing circuitry uses a linear relationship and the amount of depression to operate the motor to provide a requested amount of acceleration for transportation. In response to the amount of depression of the pedal being less than the transition point, the processing circuitry uses a non-linear relationship and the amount of depression of the pedal to operate the motor to provide a requested amount of regenerative braking.

Refuse vehicle with multi-functional pedal

A refuse vehicle includes a chassis coupled a wheel, a motor configured to drive the wheel, a body assembly coupled to the chassis and defining a refuse compartment, a lift assembly, and a vehicle control system having a sensor integrated into the body assembly and a controller in communication with the lift assembly and the sensor. The controller includes a processor and at least one memory and is configured to receive sensor data from the sensor, the sensor data indicating a potential event, receive control data indicating a state the lift assembly, and compare the sensor data to the control data to determine if the potential event is a false event associated with the state of the lift assembly or an actual event.
