Abstract: A platooning controller is provided. The platooning controller includes a processor configured to perform platooning control when an outside vehicle cuts in during platooning and a storage configured to store information for performing the platooning control. The processor is configured to perform the platooning control based on sensor information of a host vehicle, when the outside vehicle cuts in front of the host vehicle. The processor is configured to determine whether a platooning vehicle which is traveling in front of the host vehicle performs emergency braking, based on communication information received from a vehicle which is platooning in front of the host vehicle.

Abstract: A shift control method can be used for a vehicle with a dual-clutch transmission (DCT). A controller determines whether or not a power-on upshift is initiated in a state in which a high performance mode has been selected. The controller performs a torque phase in which a coupling-side clutch torque is gradually increased and a release-side clutch torque is gradually released. The coupling-side clutch torque is gradually increased to a target coupling-side clutch torque corresponding to a value obtained by adding a push feel torque to a base torque. The controller performs an inertia phase in which the coupling-side clutch torque is gradually increased while tracing an engine torque such that an engine speed is synchronized with a coupling-side clutch speed. The controller completes speed change through gradual decrease of the coupling-side clutch torque.
