1. A method comprising:
calculating driver intent based upon at least one of a vehicle speed data, an accelerator pedal position data, or at least one powertrain state data;
generating a desired vehicle speed based on the driver intent;
communicating the desired vehicle speed to a longitudinal kinematic motion controller;
generating a desired longitudinal acceleration based on the desired vehicle speed;
communicating the desired longitudinal acceleration to a longitudinal feed-forward compensation module;
communicating at least one brake command to the longitudinal feed-forward compensation module; and
generating at least one propulsion torque request based on the desired longitudinal acceleration and the at least one brake command.
