The development of electrification is widely considered to be the key to the transportation industry. In recent years, the number of electric trucks on the road is increasing year by year, so the safety of electric trucks is of great importance. At present, the batteries of electric trucks are mostly arranged on the two sides of the trucks. The protective devices are only the guardrails fixed on the vehicle body, so the protective effect is poor. In view of this situation, this paper designed a battery protection device for electric truck. When the truck is hit in a side collision, the transverse guardrail first generates plastic deformation and absorbs kinetic energy. At this time, the collision force is transmitted to the energy-absorbing box along the moving direction of the side collision vehicle, and the energy-absorbing box is contracted to produce a buffer effect.

There are a large number of curves and slopes in the mountainous areas. Unreasonable acceleration and deceleration in these areas will increase the burden of the brake system and the fuel consumption of the vehicle. The main purpose of this paper is to introduce a speed planning and promotion system for commercial vehicles in mountainous areas. The wind, slope, curve, engine brake, and rolling resistances are analyzed to establish the thermal model of the brake system. Based on the thermal model, the safe speed of the brake system is acquired. The maximum safe speed on the turning section is generated by the vehicle dynamic model. And the economic speed is calculated according to the fuel consumption model. The planning speed is provided based on these models. This system can guide the driver to handle the vehicle speed more reasonably.
