Abstract: An adjustable throttle pedal assembly comprises a depressible throttle pedal, biased away from the depressed position, towards a rest position, and an electro-magnetic brake, operable to adjust the force required to depress the throttle pedal. The electro magnetic brake can provide an increased force so as to act as a “virtual footrest”, a “virtual kick-down switch”, or an “ICE force-indent”. providing an increased force at the point which the vehicle will need to start the internal combustion engine (ICE). Moreover, the electromagnetic brake is adjustable to provide different customisable “pedal-weight” settings, to suit a driver's preferred force feedback. For example, discrete pedal weight settings, may be selectable, with a greater retarding force provided by the electromagnetic brake to provide a firmer weight, or the pedal weight can be customisable and calibrated to a given driver.

Abstract: A pedal cap comprises a foot pad having a forward surface and a rear surface; the forward surface facing the foot of a user, in use. The pedal cap includes two side portions extending rearwardly from the foot pad, away from the forward surface, each side portion comprising latch members which latch behind the head of a pedal. At each end of the pedal cap, lips are provided. At one end, the lip has an inwardly extending flange, whereas the lip at the other end may be provided with or without an inwardly extending flange. A support for supporting the pedal cap during insertion of the head of a pedal is also provided.
