Abstract

Modern cars now have more intelligent systems than never before. Advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS) and vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) communication’s which improve the safety and driving comfort can also be used to decrease fuel consumption and emission. One potential use of these technologies is to facilitate platoon driving of several vehicles, especially on highways. This paper aims to investigate the level of CO2 emissions for a platoon with different configurations. Using a validated detailed model created in LMS Imagine.Lab AMESim, an industrial modelling and simulation environment, the CO2 emissions of a platoon made of up to seven sedan vehicles were calculated. The results were calculated for several stabilized speeds and also a standardized high-speed cycle. A reduction of up to 18% in CO2 emissions was obtained depending on the traveling speed and number of vehicles in the platoon.
