A computer implemented design tool configured to design a powertrain is provided. The design tool utilises and input file comprising architecture selection constraints and load requirements for the powertrain to be designed along with a generic powertrain component library. The generic powertrain component library comprises configurable models of powertrain components. The design tool generates candidate powertrain architectures based on the input file and the generic powertrain component library. The design tool also generated candidate parameters for each of the components in each candidate powertrain architecture. The design tool is configured to calculate optimised component parameters for each candidate powertrain architecture. The design tool then outputs an optimised powertrain architecture based on the candidate powertrain architectures evaluated.
