GT-DRIVE+ is the next generation vehicle modeling framework built into GT-SUITE. It has been specifically designed for use by vehicle simulation engineers to efficiently model any type of vehicle, including conventional, commercial, hybrid, plug-in hybrid, battery, and fuel cell electric vehicles.
GT-DRIVE+ focuses on creating a streamlined workflow to quickly and easily generate results for vehicle performance, fuel consumption, emissions, and energy management. GT-DRIVE+ addresses key challenges and objectives facing vehicle teams, such as:
- Handles increasing vehicle complexity including electrification
- Accounts for thermal management and real driving emissions
- Addresses team organization and the expanding need for vehicle analysis
- Improves simulation efficiency and traceability through standardization, automation, and data management features
Together, these capabilities allow GT-DRIVE+ to provide a singular path from vehicle concept design to final system integration.
