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.
