There are three engine test benches that use the latest equipment from established specialists each used for base engine calibration. Running in two-shift operations, the trio of benches have a combined capacity to run at 6,500 hours a year.

Despite Horse’s Curitiba plant being situated at an altitude of 920 metres, the engine testing area features an advanced pressurised chamber that allows technicians to simulate conditions at various heights, down to and including sea level.

Horse also has access to extensive test tracks and driving routes, allowing it to conduct powertrain evaluation under the widest variety of driving conditions and environments.

CO2 testing can also be carried out, both under laboratory conditions and during on-road driving situations. Using a Portable Emissions Measurement System (PEMS) that is attached to the vehicle and exhaust system, it is possible to accurately capture exhaust emission data in a real-world driving scenario.

João Dias, Head of R&D Centre at Horse Brazil, said: “The Brazilian market has one of most rigorous criteria for testing emissions and fuel consumption in the world, including evaporative tests. We’re proud to now offer the market testing solutions that meet these standards, guaranteeing high quality and sustainable mobility.”
