In the fast-paced automotive industry, engineers and designers face constant pressure to deliver reliable vehicle data quickly and to evaluate multiple design variants from the earliest stages.
Traditional physical testing is time-consuming and costly, often delaying innovation and increasing development risks.
The challenge: how to accelerate design validation and decision-making without compromising accuracy, performance, or cost-efficiency.
SimCenter Yantai provides access to state-of-the-art Driver-in-the-Loop (DiL) technology, helping engineers and designers shift from physical testing to virtual simulation.
Developed by Applus+ IDIADA in partnership with VI-grade, this facility combines world-class simulation expertise and advanced motion technology to enable early validation of vehicle performance, safety, and driving experience.
At the core of SimCenter Yantai is VI-grade’s DiM250 DYNAMIC Driving Simulator:
SimCenter Yantai is part of the global VI-grade SimCenter network, offering pay-per-use access to professional simulation tools and engineering support.
