Abstract

With the intensification of the greenhouse effect, carbon neutrality has become a global goal. The development of vehicle platoons provides a new idea for energy saving and emission reduction. To explore the practical application prospect of vehicle platoon energy-saving methods and reveal the limitations and improvement direction of current vehicle platoon research, this paper reviews the current research status of vehicle platoon energy-saving methods and analyzes the energy-saving method. The energy-saving methods are summarized from aerodynamic and vehicle speed optimization perspectives. Energy-saving methods based on aerodynamics include field tests, wind-tunnel tests, and CFD. Energy-saving methods based on vehicle speed optimization mainly focus on the acceleration and deceleration behavior optimization of vehicles in the platoon. The limitations and prospects of automotive and vehicle platoon development are also put forward.
