A new car-following model termed as multiple headway, velocity, and acceleration difference (MHVAD) is proposed to describe the traffic phenomenon, which is a further extension of the existing model of full velocity difference (FVD) and full velocity and acceleration difference (FVAD). Based on the stability analysis, it is shown that the critical value of the sensitivity in the MHVAD model decreases and the stable region is apparently enlarged, compared with the FVD model and other previous models. At the end, the simulation results demonstrate that the dynamic performance of the proposed MHVAD model is better than that of the FVD and FVAD models.
