The paper presents the hardware and software components of a driving simulator for electric vehicles. The simulator is providing the user with realistic feedback regarding the required visual and kinesthetic information. The motion of the driving simulator is imposed by a 6 degrees of freedom Stewart hexapod platform. The command signal of the platform is obtained through the motion cueing algorithms in which the reference accelerations of the vehicle are transformed into displacement commands of the platform. The driver is interacting with the pedals and steering wheel with the simulator and the dynamic model of the electric vehicle is obtained with state-of-the-art simulation software (Simcenter Amesim). The simulator can be used to evaluate driving scenarios and electric vehicles’ performance, to analyze the driver’s action, and to identify the driver’s decision in safety-critical scenarios in precisely controlled driving conditions.
