Abstract: As an important component of vehicle design and energy conservation, electric vehicle dynamics simulation is essential, especially under complicated testing conditions. The current commercial vehicle simulation software is mostly used for fuel vehicle dynamics simulation, which lacks accurate electric powertrain parts and open sources. To address this problem, this paper proposes an open-source and flexible vehicle dynamics simulation platform that includes 27 degrees of freedom (DOFs) based on Simulink, which can compatibly support both traditional vehicle dynamics simulations and electric vehicle dynamics simulations. In addition, the platform can support module customization, which is convenient for researchers. Although this platform still needs some iterations to reach industrial and commercial standards, it can already achieve parameter consistency under the stability demands in general scenarios. We believe this work should receive research attention and participation to provide lower thresholds and more references to the dynamic simulation of electric vehicles to reduce vehicle energy consumption.
