A pedal assembly for a vehicle that includes a pedal, a sensor configured to sense a force exerted on the pedal, and an electronic processor connected to the sensor. The electronic processor is configured to determine a first output value, and receive a signal indicative of the force exerted on the pedal from the sensor. The electronic processor is further configured to determine a second output value based on the force exerted on the pedal, the first output value, and a model that defines a mechanical hysteresis effect and generate an output signal for controlling the vehicle, the output signal corresponding to the second output value.
