Abstract This paper presents a virtual kinematics & compliance (K&C) test rig, also known as a Suspension Parameter Measurement Machine, SPMM. The focus is to explain the requirements and implementation of the rig model is built to be a virtual equivalent to the physical test rig, capable of reading the same input and producing the same output. The virtual test rig is implemented as a Modelica model that is plug compatible with any vehicle model using the standard interface from the Modelica Vehicle Dynamics Library. The operation of the virtual test rig is done from a scripting environment that executes a cosimulation FMU. An example test case is also shown where results from a virtual test is compared with the corresponding run on the physical test rig
