Out 20th anniversary issue! The May 2023 issue of Vehicle Dynamics International magazine is now available online, with features including Polestar’s chief chassis engineer discussing how to optimise the dynamics of a performance EV, EV-focused developments in tyre engineering, and 20 years of dynamics highlights

The newly developed cubiX software – ZF’s first pure software product –controls all chassis systems to achieve a harmonious blend of smooth acceleration and braking, precise steering, and balanced damping. The intelligent networking of all chassis systems can enable optimally controlled longitudinal, lateral and vertical dynamics

The vehicle dynamics sector has again shown impressive work across engineering, innovation, technology and teamwork in the shortlist for this year’s Vehicle Dynamics International Awards. The judging panel had a tough job this year, with some very tight results, but five worthy winners emerged

ZF has signed an agreement with NIO, the Chinese EV OEM, which lays out a cooperation for the development of steer-by-wire (SBW) and other technologies. Both companies have also agreed to establish an instant information-sharing mechanism in order to deepen communication

ZF has revealed a high-performance vehicle motion domain controller, a central computer adaptable for all types of chassis platforms, vehicle motion and body functions, next-generation software-defined cars, and future domain and zone E/E architectures

In this Innovation Talk, Karsten Schebsdat, VW’s head of vehicle dynamics and chassis control systems joins Jan Schiedek-Jacht, head of technical development for VW R and Stefan Schröder, manager of steering systems, to discuss the current state of play at Volkswagen and the future of dynamics
