Test system for automotive applications

for hybrid motorsfor vehicle emissions

A wide variety of vehicles are on the road today: Pure internal combustion engine (ICE) or hybrid engine vehicles Vehicles that use fossil fuels, biofuels, CO2 neutral e-fuels or carbon-free fuels Pure battery electric vehicles (BEVs) Regardless of the type of vehicle, they all share the same roads and the same traffic. All must provide proof of their compliance with the same legal requirements. Climate change, global legislation of pollutant- and CO2 emissions, and electric energy consumption pose major challenges for the automotive industry, requiring the development of new and improved propulsion technologies along with significantly increased testing and measurement complexity. Ready for the Future The upcoming Euro 7 will be the world’s first emissions legislation that covers a wide range of environmental impacts from all vehicle types, ranging from pure ICE to BEV. This will result in further development and testing challenges, such as a broader range of environmental and driving conditions, new pollutants and a longer service life. All of these changes will lead to more extensive testing and simulation work. The ability to demonstrate compliance with the vehicle emissions and energy legislation requires state-of-the-art test solutions, a new generation of portable measurement systems for testing in real-world driving conditions, as well as totally new methodology for developing propulsion systems and vehicles that meet these new standards.
