Abstract Double semitrailer road train simulation model was established based on TruckSim in order to research the driving stability and improve combination vehicles performance. Tractor semitrailer simulation model was established as comparing model. Simulation of steady static circular test was carried out to research steering characteristic. Single lane change tests on double semitrailer road train and tractor semitrailer were also carried out to research lateral stability and the yaw rate, lateral acceleration and their rearward amplification (RA) was selected as evaluation index. The results shown that double semitrailer road train have appropriate deficiency steering characteristic and good driving stability. Apparently, it’s not as good as tractor semitrailer. The results serve as a useful reference for accelerating the popularization and application and promoting the development of vehicle industry technology .
