Abstract
A method for controlling vehicle propulsion may include identifying at least one route characteristic of a portion of a route being traversed by a vehicle and determining a profile for a target vehicle speed based on the at least one route characteristic and a vehicle energy consumption profile. The method may also include, in response to detecting a lead vehicle, determining a vehicle speed of the lead vehicle and determining whether to avoid triggering initiation of the vehicle follow mode by the vehicle propulsion controller based on (i) a distance between the vehicle and a triggering threshold and (ii) the vehicle speed of the vehicle. The method may also include, in response to not triggering vehicle follow mode, determining, based on the vehicle speed of the lead vehicle and the profile for the target vehicle speed, a traveling distance between the vehicle and a trigger threshold.
