Abstract: A simulated vehicle includes body panels arranged in a simulated vehicle position and movably mounted on an internal support structure attached to a platform. The body panels are moved by a control unit in any of up/down, fore/aft, cross car and tilt directions. Certain of the body panels are formed of first and second telescopingly overlapping panel sections which are extendable and retractable with respect to each other by the control unit. The panel sections are configured to present a solid exterior surface in any extended and retracted position.
