ZF Commercial Vehicle Solutions (CVS) India, a global leader in automotive safety systems, has inaugurated its Electronic Stability Control (ESC) test track in Chennai. This new facility complements ZF’s existing ABS test track, expanding its capabilities for advanced vehicle testing.
Independent testing platform
The ESC test track offers a controlled environment for comprehensive evaluation of vehicle stability, agility and handling. Certified by TÜV Rheinland and ARAI, the facility supports testing for a wide range of vehicles, from two-wheelers to heavy commercial vehicles. Additionally, it is open for use by customers and third parties, providing an industry-wide platform for independent testing, the company said.
The track, which includes a 200-meter diameter dynamic pad with a 0.9 µ surface friction, is also ideal for testing components under extreme stress to identify further development opportunities. The 600-meter approach roads simulate real-world conditions, allowing tests for scenarios such as slippery surfaces, sharp turns, and sudden braking.
