English term or phrase: engine-off coasting
So we're working on all of those technologies to work in conjunction with the diesel engine. At the same time, to your point on electrification, we're developing systems that can, in a really smart way, integrate 48-volt power into a diesel engine plus transmission kind of architecture that can allow engine-off coasting, so completely shutting off the diesel engine when it's costing. I think the typical line haul truck is coasting somewhere close to 20% to 30% of the time.

rodar com o motor desligado
Explanation:

"Coasting" é o chamado "descer na banguela", mas dependendo da tradução provavelmente ficaria melhor "rodar com o motor desligado".

neutral  Mario Freitas: Se o motorista desligar o motor, ele fica sem freio Mats! Mats, ninguém deliga o motor para rodar na banguela.

  -> É justamente esse o desafio de montar o sistema, Mario: nos sistemas tradicionais, o motorista perderia o freio. Nesse sistema, o motorista consegue rodar em segurança mesmo com o motor desligado.

andar em ponto-morto


Explanation:
O motorista não desliga o motor quando está "coasting". Os freios do caminhão são a ar: se você desligar o motor, fica sem freio. O termo se refere a andar de ponto-morto apenas.
