Development efforts are multiplying dramatically due to increasingly complex powertrain technologies and stricter legislation with new and longer test cycles. The latest WLTC test cycles, for example, are 30 % longer than their NEDC forebears. Driven by RDE legislation, there is also a trend to pull road tests ahead in the development process or to reproduce RDE tests on testbeds to increase efficiency even further. This means the already crowded test infrastructure must host even more equipment. Both time and space are becoming restraining factors.
