Abstract Fun to drive, styling and quality belong to the top customer preferences for premium automobiles, particularly in the sport and luxury segment. Therefore, vehicle dynamics and performance have always have major attributes in vehicle development. Especially in urban areas, however, traffic has been increasing significantly over the last decade. More and more, drivers find themselves in stop-and-go situations, where the active part of driving and enjoying the dynamics of the vehicle is strongly reduced. Therefore, driving comfort and driver assistance are gaining more and more importance. Furthermore, severe CO2 and emission regulations lead to a strong shift towards E-mobility technologies in the entire automotive industry. The weight of traction batteries causes a significant increase of overall vehicle weight, which has a negative impact on driving dynamics. In view of these trends and other megatrends, fig. 1, one can ask the question, if fun to drive and performance will keep their meaning as major attributes in product strategy. This paper intends to discuss some aspects of this in more detail.
