Abstract
As vehicles become increasingly electrified, their specifications are shifting closer to those of low-center-of-gravity sports cars. This transformation is characterized by a lower center of gravity height, reduced pitch and yaw moments of inertia, and a rearward shifted center of gravity. However, due to the placement of the battery to underfloor, the driver's seating height remains relatively higher, distinguishing these vehicles from traditional low-center-of-gravity sports cars. This study investigates how the differences in the driver's seating position influence steering characteristics evaluation obtained by experimental results through a driving simulator.
