Range Certification & Route Validation - Accelerating Homologation Testing
Testing Services Provider · UITP E-SORT certification & regulatory homologation testing
Challenge
-
10-30% variability in range test results across nominally identical test runs creates uncertainty for clients and requires costly repeated cycles
-
Certification protocols (UITP E-SORT, WLTP, regulatory standards) prohibit intrusive measurement tools, limiting diagnostic capability during official tests
-
Hundreds of repeated test cycles (SORT 1, 2, 3) on tracks and chassis dynamometers drive up testing facility costs, reduce throughput, and extend project timelines for OEM clients
-
Testing labs struggle to provide clients with root-cause analysis when certification results vary unexpectedly-leading to client dissatisfaction and rework
-
Competitive pressure to deliver faster, more reliable certification services while maintaining strict regulatory compliance
Impact
-
30–70% reduction in repeated certification test cycles, improving facility throughput and revenue per test bay
-
Faster turnaround time for clients-enabling testing labs to take on more projects and increase competitive advantage
-
Enhanced value-added services: root-cause diagnostics and energy optimization consulting alongside standard certification testing
-
Improved client satisfaction through predictable certification readiness and transparent subsystem-level reporting
-
Stronger market positioning as a premium testing provider with advanced diagnostic capabilities beyond basic regulatory compliance
V-Hola Solution
-
Non-intrusive energy fingerprinting of vehicle subsystems (propulsion, HVAC, auxiliaries, doors, compressors) during pre-certification and official homologation runs-fully compliant with certification protocols
-
Detection of energy drift versus trusted reference patterns across SORT cycles, enabling early identification of test anomalies before final certification submission
-
Subsystem-level visibility into "blind spot" issues that standard test equipment cannot detect-providing clients with actionable root-cause analysis
-
Validation across diverse test scenarios: controlled certification conditions, variable passenger loads, climate chamber testing, and duty cycle variations
