While eco-friendly vehicle concepts are strategic for OEMs and suppliers, drivers are still expecting driving pleasure to be present. Measures taken to optimize energy efficiency should have no effect on key performances like noise, drivability or ride comfort. Being able to assess early in the design and engineering process the impact of system architecture choices on the global energy balance and on key attributes performance enables to frontload design decisions and maintain time-to-market.
Siemens PLM Software offers a unique combination of system, 3D and CFD simulation tools, along with engineering services, allowing you to find the right balance before a physical prototype exists. You can then digitally explore the physics and the control systems behind various vehicle subsystems to ensure full-vehicle energy balance and optimization.
