The invention relates to a method for improving ergonomics of a vehicle cockpit. At first information defining an initial cockpit configuration is obtained. Further, information on a cockpit user's shape and information of a seat and steering wheel position which the user typically uses while driving is obtained. This information altogether is fed into a bio-mechanical simulation which carries out the simulation on the basis of the information defining the initial cockpit configuration, the user's shape and the user's seat and steering means position. In the simulation an ergonomic quality criteria are calculated for reaching movements during driving. On the basis of the simulation result which is the quality criteria the cockpit configuration is then changed. The bio-mechanical simulation and the changing of the cockpit configuration in the optimization process is then repeated until a predetermined stop condition is fulfilled. Then the cockpit configuration which is achieved at that point in time is output as final cockpit-configuration.
