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
