The Peloton project, led by Purdue University ( earlier post ) will apply next-generation truck platooning technology and concepts for smart, cloud-connected powertrains to achieve 20% fuel savings for tractor-trailers. This approach means that innovations that emerge from the project can be commercialized at low cost.
