The kinetic energy for a large vehicle is different from that of a smaller vehicle, assuming that the vehicles are travelling at the same speed and stopping the same distance. This is because for a larger vehicle the kinetic energy is higher, as the mass for a larger vehicle, is more than the smaller vehicle.
