Abstract: The invention relates to a method and an associated device for simulating the driving characteristics of a drive concept to be developed for a motor vehicle. The aim of the invention is to provide a method and an associated device for simulating the driving characteristics of a drive concept to be developed for a motor vehicle, using which the longitudinal dynamics and the energy requirements of designed concepts are simulated, compared with one another and validated during an actual driving operation. According to the invention, in order to simulate the driving characteristics of a drive concept to be developed for a motor vehicle during an actual driving operation for a production vehicle, the engine and transmission control are influenced by means of an additional control unit in such a way that the longitudinal dynamics of the production vehicle correspond to that of a designed hybrid drive.
