A configurable, modular vehicle on common chassis platform, and associated systems and methods are disclosed herein. In one embodiment, a configurable modular vehicle includes: a chassis, a power plant module configured to generate electrical energy, and a drive train module. The drive train module includes: at least one traction motor configured to receive electrical energy from the power plant module, a transmission configured to transfer torque from the traction motor to a drive axle, and the drive axle configured to transfer torque to drive wheels, and a control system module configured to control components of the power plant module and the drive train module. The interfaces of the power plant module and the drive train module are predefined, and different types of the power plant modules and the drive train modules are interchangeable within their respective predefined interfaces.

Configurable, modular vehicle on common chassis platform, and associated systems and methods

A cab suspension and repositioning system () for a truck includes a control arm assembly () having two control arms () with distal ends pivotably attached to a truck chassis () and proximal ends pivotably attached to a cab (), and one or more follower control arms () having a distal end pivotably attached to the chassis () and a proximal end pivotably attached to the cab (). Cab suspension assemblies () releasably lock the cab () to the chassis () during operation. The control arm assembly () further provides motion control to the cab (). Hydraulic cylinders () engage the control arm assembly () and are operable to move the cab () between an operating position adjacent the chassis and an access position away from the chassis () substantially without rotating the cab (). A control system () powers the cylinders () and controls the transition between the operating and access positions.

Cab suspension and repositioning system

An editable instrument assembly () for a vehicle. The editable instrument assembly includes a plurality of lenses (), each lens having an icon () disposed thereon and a lens frame (). The lens frame is adapted to removably receive each of the plurality of lenses. The editable instrument assembly also includes an instrument panel () comprising a lens frame receiving assembly () for removably and slidably receiving the lens frame with the plurality of lenses.
