VIRTUAL VEHICLE Research Center

VIRTUAL VEHICLE is an international research center that focuses on vehicle development and future vehicle concepts for road and rail.

With over 200 employees, we collaborate with more than 100 domestic and international partners from science and industry. Our expertise is paving the way for the efficient development of affordable, safe and environmentally friendly vehicles. The key aspects include connecting numeric simulation and experimental verification, as well as developing a comprehensive, full-vehicle system simulation. The COMET K2 program will provide the basis for funded research activities until at least the end of 2017. An extensive involvement in EU projects and a broad portfolio of commissioned research and services round out our activities.
