    Vehicle Technical Intelligence Platform (VTIP)

    The most comprehensive vehicle benchmarking and product planning tool for in-production fleets in the United States.

    How are we performing against the competition?
    What are our strengths and weaknesses?
    What are industry trends & norms?

    As vehicle compliance regulations become increasingly stringent, it has never been more important to determine best-in-class attributes like mass efficiency, aerodynamic drag, and tire rolling resistance.  Being able to compare elements that contribute to fuel economy and CO2 emissions is essential to remaining competitive.

    The Vehicle Technical Intelligence Platform (VTIP) from S&P Global Mobility provides comprehensive specifications and performance attributes for light-duty vehicles.  Subject Matter Experts align disparate data sources including manufacturer specifications and certification information; combining all vehicle and powertrain specifications with certification test parameters and results, including the road load coefficients, equivalent test weights, fuel economy, and tailpipe CO2 emissions.

    With VTIP you can easily:

    • Graphically compare the mass efficiency, aerodynamic drag, tire rolling resistance, vehicle tractive energy and tractive efficiency across competitive models 
    • Identify best-in-class yet difficult to research technologies including hybrid architecture, battery capacity, and available electric motor power
    • Assess vehicle compliance status against relevant regulatory standards including CO2 and fuel economy targets

    Vehicle Technical Intelligence Platform Content

    VTIP includes

    This subscription solution provides highly granular technical specifications plus synthesized variables.  VTIP enables you to assess the current competitive position for key attributes including, mass efficiency, aerodynamic drag, tire rolling resistance, tractive energy, tractive efficiency, fuel economy, CO2, electric range, and acceleration performance. 

    • Approximately 1,600 individual vehicle models and sub-configurations, per year 
    • Over 330 variables are reported per vehicle 
    • Updated monthly, VTIP currently encompasses model years 2012 to current
    • Continually updated to reflect applicable regulatory standards including CO2 and fuel economy targets
    • This intuitive web-based application provides search, filtering, charting, and reporting capabilities

    VTIP Use Case Example #1

     

    • To support the mid-term evaluation greenhouse regulations, the California Air Resources Board (CARB) requested a comprehensive evaluation of the entire U.S. fleet, which is 1500 unique vehicles: all brands, all models.
    • Client Request:  Determine best-in-class mass efficiency, aerodynamic drag, and tire rolling resistance among all vehicles in the U.S. fleet.
    • Solution: Generate distributions of the VTIP metrics of mass efficiency, aerodynamic drag, and tire rolling resistance to select best-in-class levels by vehicle type.

     

    VTIP Use Case Example #2

     

    • Client Request: provide efficiency trends for specific internal combustion engine (ICE) technologies.
    • Solution: compare the powertrain efficiency, included in VTIP, of the requested technologies against all ICE powertrain applications.

     

    VTIP Use Case Example #3

     

    • Client Request: OEM request to compare the fuel economy elements of their products to their competitor products.
    • Solution: compare the mass efficiency, aerodynamic drag, tire rolling resistance, vehicle tractive energy and tractive efficiency of their products against their competitor products.
