Why carry out vehicle tests?

Vehicle testing is essential for testing propulsion systems and on-board equipment in real-life conditions. They enable us to anticipate behaviour in extreme climates, measure fuel consumption, range and emissions precisely, and check regulatory compliance. As well as providing technical validation, they secure your market launches, reduce the risks of non-compliance and guarantee the reliability perceived by your customers.

Our five main areas of expertise in vehicle testing

Climatic tests

Reproduce the most extreme environmental conditions (temperature, humidity, altitude) to validate your vehicles' behaviour. Our large-volume climatic chambers simulate critical situations for thermal, electronic or comfort systems.

Range tests for electric vehicles

We measure the real range of your electric vehicles (BEV) according to the WLTP cycles, but also in customised conditions on track or road. Our equipment guarantees the reliable results needed for product validation and customer communication.

ICE / HEV / PHEV consumption tests

We assess the energy consumption of your thermal or hybrid vehicles on a chassis dynamometer according to the WLTP, NEDC, FTP75 and other cycles. These precise measurements are used to homologate, optimise and compare different powertrains.

Roller bench pollution tests

Our air-conditioned chassis dynamometers can accurately measure CO, CO₂, NOx, HC, CH₄ or fine particle emissions, according to Euro 6 / Euro 7 standards and regulatory cycles. An ideal solution for your homologation or R&D campaigns.

RDE tests with PEMS instrumentation

To reflect emissions in real-life conditions, we fit PEMS systems to your vehicles and analyse pollutants in real time on standardised routes. This is an essential service for validating your engine strategies and guaranteeing Euro 6d compliance.
