Virtualizing electronic control unit (ECU) testing enables earlier validation by replacing physical test components with high-fidelity virtual models.

This session explores two EV powertrain-focused approaches: power hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) testing and the transition from HIL to software-in-the-loop (SIL), expanding test coverage and accelerating verification.

What you’ll learn:

• How to expand EV powertrain test coverage beyond dynos and prototype vehicles through virtualized testing
• How to validate control software earlier using flexible HIL-to-SIL test environments
• How to reduce development time and cost with reusable, software-defined test assets
