Mustang Advanced Engineering (MAE), an American manufacturer of testing equipment, dynamometers and related products, has delivered and installed two new chassis dynamometers for GM Canada, which recently began a $2 billion transformational investment in their manufacturing and R&D facilities in Ingersoll and Oshawa, Ontario.
As part of their expanding capabilities, the need for end-of-line testing of GM’s heavy duty and light-duty pickups, and accommodating the switch to being Canada’s first full-scale EV manufacturing plant, they contacted Mustang to deliver two chassis dynamometers with the capabilities to handle two-wheel and all-wheel drive vehicles.
GM is ramping up production of electric vehicles, and requires the equipment to test these vehicles. MAE’s solution was a 2WD and an AWD 500 series chassis dynamometers oversized and equipped with extra safety features including stone guards to block any debris thrown from the wheels on the rollers.
