Vehicular communications, considered as one of the key technologies for autonomous driving, are still faced with significant challenges, e.g., distributed resource allocation in the direct communication mode. In Cellular Vehicle-to-Everything (C-V2X), a Semi-Persistent Scheduling (SPS) based Medium-Access-Control (MAC) layer protocol is adopted by 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) for its sidelink communications. However, the performance of either the SPS scheme in standard or the state-of-the-art enhancement works is not satisfactory. In this paper, we propose a piggyback-based collaboration method and firstly introduce Age of Information (AoI) to evaluate the status update performance of C-V2X. In addition, the closed-form AoI performance is obtained. Through extensive simulations, the proposed scheme exhibits better performance than the current schemes, both in terms of AoI and transmission reliability.
