Abstract: A vehicle includes an engine; an electric machine; a transceiver, programmed to communicate with a server; and a controller, programmed to responsive to identifying a route, obtain road data associated with the route via the transceiver, wherein the road data include locations of stop signs and traffic lights, and identify a sign classification using a sign and traffic light density calculated using a total number of stop signs and traffic lights within a lookahead distance on the route, identify a road type classification using the sign classification, responsive to determining the sign and traffic light density within the lookahead distance is above a threshold indicative of a city road type classification, adjust a drivetrain of the vehicle to reduce engine operation and increasingly propel the vehicle via the electric machine.

Abstract: Handshaking is performed, by an ego device via a wireless transceiver, with surrounding mobile devices to receive identifiers of the surrounding mobile devices and incoming notification messages from the surrounding mobile devices. Each of the incoming notification messages are sent from a different respective sender device of the surrounding mobile devices and include identifiers of devices seen by the sender device and an indication of whether issues with the devices seen by the sender device were identified by the sender device. An alert is raised responsive to an issue being indicated with the ego device based on the incoming notification messages.

Abstract: A hybrid vehicle includes an engine, an electric machine, a traction battery electrically connected to the electric machine, and a controller. The controller is programmed to, in response to the vehicle approaching a decline, overrepresent a state of charge (SOC) of the traction battery to cause a torque command to the engine to decrease and a torque command to the electric machine to increase such that discharge of the traction battery increases in advance of the decline.
