The first set of virtual files representing proving grounds located at the IDIADA testing facilities in Tarragona, Spain is now available both for offline (on software products such as VI-CarRealTime from VI-grade for real-time vehicle simulation) and online (on all driving simulators from VI-grade) simulations. In detail, the “Dry Handling”, “General Road” and “Comfort” tracks are now available as graphic scenarios in VI-GraphSim as well as road data files.

Lead Vehicle Dynamics Engineer Mattias Davidsson explains how the new S60 was developed with the help of Volvo Cars’ advanced, state-of-the-art DiM driving dynamics simulator from VI-grade.
