Switching to electric powertrains leads to high axle loads, and thus the optimisation of driving dynamics and driving-resistance measurement requires even more precise measurement technologies. Kistler’s P109 wheel torque transducer has a measuring range of up to 9,000Nm, with precise measurement results, even with high axle loads
Headline features in the May issue include the application of artificial intelligence and machine learning in vehicle dynamics, an interview with Porsche’s Lars Kern, a hands-on experience with the Lamborghini Huracán Sterrato, the latest development tools, and more
Levidian, a UK climate technology business, has been developing a prototype truck tyre that combines net-zero graphene with carbon black in a new tread formulation that could unlock a future of more sustainable, higher performance tyres
Polyn Technology has launched the VibroSense system for tyre monitoring, a neuromorphic front-end technology for preprocessing vibration data locally, right on the tyre. The analysis of in-tyre vibration sensor data determines the road condition for better grip control
Dymag, a manufacturer of lightweight wheels, has collaborated with composites material specialist Hankuk Carbon, to develop an all-new carbon hybrid wheel for the Hyundai Ioniq 5 N NPX1 concept car
Technical highlights of the new 665PS Vantage include Active Vehicle Dynamics, Bilstein DTX adaptive dampers, a rear E-diff and 50:50 weight distribution. All wrapped in beautiful, retro bodywork
Continental is celebrating passing a landmark one million tests using its fully automated tyre braking test facility, located at the Contidrom test site, since it was installed in 2012. Continental says the facility, known as the AIBA (Automated Indoor Braking Analyzer), is unique in the automotive industry
NIRA Dynamics has announced that it has now sold 100 million units of its software-based Tire Pressure Indicator (TPI), claimed to have saved an estimated 40,000 tons of electronic waste
Hyundai and Kia have unveiled ‘Active Air Skirt’ (AAS) technology that controls the turbulence generated during high-speed driving by operating variably depending on the vehicle’s speed. The aerodynamic effects of the technology increase downforce, improving vehicle traction and high-speed stability
