X-PD Lapsim software

X-PD LapSIM Tools

Vehicle Lap simulation

‘X-PD LapSIM’ is a vehicle simulation toolbox comprising a suite of software components which can be used for the detailed analysis of vehicle performance over a defined vehicle path. Utilising a comprehensive, non-linear multi-mass vehicle model described by over 200 parameters & characteristic arrays it can be used to simulate and subsequently characterize a road or competition vehicles performance over a defined path in the virtual test environment.

Highly intuitive and user friendly the software is suitable for use by professionals and amateurs alike, with a range of powerful features it has applications from the design office through to trackside engineering. For the top-end user the latest evolution – X-PD LapSIM PRO – is uniquely configurable open-architecture, allowing scope to define various model elements in complete detail, to produce a bespoke simulation capability suitable to individual applications.

The standard software is available as a free to use download with extensive functionality, advanced features for the licensed user provide highly flexible professional level lap simulation capabilities – please contact us for further information on licensing options and pricing:
