Cooperative look-ahead control for fuel-efficient and safe heavy-duty vehicle platooning [PDF]
, 2015 The operation of groups of heavy-duty vehicles (HDVs) at a small inter-vehicular distance (known as platoon) allows to lower the overall aerodynamic drag and, therefore, to reduce fuel consumption and greenhouse gas emissions.

Fuel Economy in Truck Platooning: A Literature Overview and Directions for Future Research
Journal of Advanced Transportation, 2020 A truck platoon is a set of virtually linked trucks that travel in tandem with small intervehicle distances. Several studies have proved that traveling in platoons can significantly improve fuel economy due to the reduced aerodynamic drag.
