This paper is the third in the series of documents designed to record the progress on the SAE Plug-in Electric Vehicle (PEV) communication task force. The initial paper (2010-01-0837) introduced utility communications (J2836/1™ & J2847/1) and how the SAE task force interfaced with other organizations. The second paper (2011-01-0866) focused on the next steps of the utility requirements and added DC charging (J2836/2™ & J2847/2) along with initial effort for Reverse Power Flow (J2836/3™ & J2847/3). This paper continues with the following: 1. Completion of DC charging's 1st step publication of J2836/2™ & J2847/2. 2. Completion of 1st step of communication requirements as it relates to PowerLine Carrier (PLC) captured in J2931/1. This leads to testing of PLC products for Utility and DC charging messages using EPRI's test plan and schedule. 3. Progress for PEV communications interoperability in J2953/1.

Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) are becoming common on passenger cars and pickup trucks. Accordingly, the manufacturers and installers of aftermarket equipment for these vehicles have an interest in confirming the functionality of ADAS when their equipment is put in place. However, there is very little publicly available information on the effect of aftermarket components on original equipment ADAS. To address this deficiency, a research program was undertaken in which a 2022 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 light truck was tested in four different hardware configurations, including stock as well as three modified conditions. Aftermarket modifications to the vehicle consisted of increased tire diameters, a level kit, and two different lift kits. A series of physical tests were carried out to evaluate the ADAS performance of the vehicle with modifications.
