C8 is mid-engined, unlike front-engined C7 facelift. Platform remains same, engine position shifted further back. 6.2-liter naturally aspirated LT2 V8 engine with electric motor
App compares tire and wheel specifications in Imperial and Metric units. Calculates equivalent chassis weight difference after tire+wheel upgrade. Works on both iPhone/iPod Touch and iPad devices
Simscape tool enables physical system modeling in Simulink environment. EV simulations conducted in Scilab over 60-second timeframe. WLTC used to validate vehicle system performance analysis
Power-to-weight ratio (PWR) is engine power divided by vehicle mass. Used to compare engine performance and vehicle capabilities. Actual values may vary in use and affect performance
Center of mass is the point where vehicle behaves as if all mass is centered. Three coordinates needed: longitudinal (a,b), altitudinal (h), and side (x,y). Calculation requires car scale and measurements of wheelbase, radius, and track
