Abstract

A method for controlling vehicle propulsion includes receiving signal data corresponding to a signaled intersection of a route being traversed by a vehicle. The method further includes determining an intersection propulsion profile for the signaled intersection based on at least a current vehicle speed and the signal data. The method further includes determining, based on the intersection propulsion profile, whether to deviate from a vehicle energy consumption profile corresponding to the route being traversed by the vehicle. The method further includes, in response to a determination to deviate from the vehicle energy consumption profile, selectively controlling vehicle propulsion of the vehicle according to the intersection propulsion profile. The method further includes, in response to traversing the intersection, selectively controlling vehicle propulsion according to the vehicle energy consumption profile.
