With the evolution of technological resources as tools for industrial development, it became possible to simulate various components and mechanisms to premeditate evaluations in the virtual environment even before the construction of the first prototype. In the automotive industry, engineers have personal challenge of predicting vehicle behavior in early stages of project development, when it is extremely important to have assertive assessments for the construction of significant physical specimens, improving parameters such as quality and reliability. However, the simulated performance’s objective values often do not provide quantified values in a subjectively way for drivers. The work in question proposes the study and elaboration of a simple vehicle model from a well-structured dynamic model, with information detailing in the powertrain and drivetrain assemblies, considering these as the main mechanisms to promote longitudinal acceleration.
