LCV2015RIDE & DRIVE
The Ride & Drive element is one of the key features ofthe LCV event. Whether you are an engineer wishingto experience different advanced low carbon vehicletechnologies available across a range of demonstratorvehicles, a fleet manager wishing to benchmark theperformance of new and emerging low carbon vehiclesagainst your current diesel or petrol fleet, or a policy makerfamiliarising yourself with the full range of low carbonvehicles, you will appreciate the opportunities offered bythe test tracks available at LCV2015 from our partner site,Millbrook Proving Ground.All Ride & Drive vehicles are located in the external exhibitionspace on the Steering Pad.From the Steering Pad you can access three unique testtrack facilities; the Hill Route, the City Course and the HighSpeed Circuit.
Hill Route
City Course
High Speed Circuit
The Hill Route is a favourite for many drivers as the gradients(6.7% to 21%) provide a unique facility for the evaluation ofpowertrains, transmissions, dynamics, braking and active systems for all types of low and ultra low carbon vehicle.
The City Course offers a means of simulating low speedurban driving conditions to judge vehicle performance.There are a number of designated points where the vehiclecan come to a halt to evaluate Stop/Start technology.
Commonly used for mileage accumulation and durabilitytesting, the circular, banked track and multi-laneconfiguration of the High Speed Circuit provides a uniquefacility for evaluating the acceleration and high speeddynamics of low carbon vehicles. Each lane has its ownneutral steering speed to simulate long distance motorwaydriving.
