A modular vehicle library is presented, containing driveline and vehicle dynamics component models. The library is built in Matlab/Simulink, taking advantage of its modular capabilites and real-time application possibilities. Its use is demonstrated with the construction of a 4-wheel- car, containing a complex driveline (2.8 L 210 kW V6 turbo engine with 5-speed automatic transmission). The model is used to show the importance of integrated modelling for studying manoeuvres that cause strong interaction between vehicle dynamics and driveline behaviour. An acceleration-while-cornering manoeuvre is simulated and the results are discussed. The car model runs at low computational effort, even without using Matlab's real-time capabilities. Current advantages, shortcomings and expected developments of the library are put forward.
