CarSim

What do you like best?

CarSim has a user-friendly interface, capability of interfacing with Matlab and HIL systems, very good visualization of results. The manual is also very well prepared and easy to access.

What do you dislike?

I did not experience any specific drawback. The only thing that I can say, it is sometimes uneasy to manage the variables' list for VS coding and Matlab S-function.

What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?

We created a model of the World's fastest electric vehicle (the Venturi Buckeye Bullet 3) to track performances and evaluate how control and components upgrades would impact the vehicle's performance. In 2016, we reached 359mph in Bonneville Salts Flats. CarSim was for sure a great support tool during our project.
