A vehicle includes a chassis including a first frame rail and a second frame rail, a tractive element coupled to the chassis, a drive motor configured to drive the tractive element to propel the vehicle, and an energy storage system. The energy storage system includes a first battery module and a second battery module. The energy storage system is selectively reconfigurable between (a) a first configuration in which the first battery module and the second battery module each provide electrical energy to the drive motor and (b) a second configuration in which the first battery module is removed from the vehicle and the second battery module provides electrical energy to the drive motor.

Vehicle component

Systems and apparatuses include a tag axle system including an axle assembly, a linkage coupling the axle assembly to a vehicle chassis, and a hydraulic cylinder coupled between the vehicle chassis and the axle assembly. The hydraulic cylinder actuates the axle assembly between a raised position and a lowered position, and acts as a spring damper suspension component.
