MARTORELL, Spanien, March 19, 2018 /PRNewswire/ --

  • 150 Techniker und Ingenieure, 60 Tests, 30.000 km und vier Monate Arbeit unter Extrembedingungen zum Testen der Fahrzeugleistung   
  • Jedes Jahr trotzen bis zu 90 Autos Schnee, Eis und Temperaturen bis zu  -35 Grad    
  • Ziel der Tests ist es, die Funktion aller Systeme zu testen, bevor ein Auto auf den Markt kommt

Wälder mit schneebedeckten Birken und Kiefern, Temperaturen bis zu 35 Grad unter null und ein gefrorener See, der als Testbahn fungiert. An einem Ort in der Nähe des nördlichen Polarkreises bringen SEAT-Ingenieure bis zu 90 Autos ans Limit. Die im folgenden beschriebenen Tests waren die bislang extremsten Wintertests, denen der SEAT Ateca FR unterzogen wurde.

- Stabilitätskontrolle: Dieser Test wird auf einer kreisförmigen Bahn auf der gefrorenen Oberfläche eines 6 Quadratkilometer großen Sees durchgeführt. Die Antriebsschlupfregelung des Fahrzeugs wird bei unterschiedlichen Stufen deaktiviert und für sportlicheres Fahren sogar komplett ausgeschaltet. Bricht das Fahrzeug aus, kontrolliert das ESP die Räder und korrigiert die Fahrtrichtung des Fahrzeugs.

- Bremstest: 200-Meter-Bahn mit zwei verschiedenen Bodenbeschaffenheiten: hoher und niedriger Grip. Eine der Bahnen wird auf 10 Grad angewärmt, damit sich auf dem Asphalt kein Eis bildet, während die andere auf -16 Grad gekühlt wird, um das Eis zu erhalten. Mithilfe dieses Tests kalibrieren die Ingenieure das ABS, ein Fahrsystem, das die Fahrzeugstabilität auch unter extremsten Bedingungen kontrolliert.

- Ansaugtest: Bei diesem Test soll überprüft werden, ob der Luftfilter blockiert, wenn der Fahrer in einer Schneewolke hinter einem anderen Fahrzeug fährt. Diese Situation wird simuliert, indem zwei Autos mit einer Geschwindigkeit von jeweils 80 km/h hintereinander fahren. Das erste Fahrzeug verursacht Schneeverwirbelungen und am zweiten Fahrzeug wird die Analyse durchgeführt. Nach 50 Kilometern wird überprüft, ob der Filter voll ist, da in diesem Fall die Motorleistung nachlassen könnte.

- Lärmanalyse: Der Fahrer und ein (in der Regel) mitfahrender Techniker untersuchen, ob irgendwelche für die Passagiere störenden Geräusche auftreten und woher diese gegebenenfalls stammen. Durch die Kälte ziehen sich einige der ungefähr dreitausend Teile eines Autos zusammen, was zu derartigen Geräuschen führen kann, wenn die Teile in Kontakt kommen. Um diese Geräusche zu analysieren, werden die Autos bei verschiedenen Geschwindigkeiten über verschiedene Oberflächen gefahren. Eine der Varianten dieses Tests besteht darin, das Auto mehrere Male bei einer Geschwindigkeit zwischen 20 und 30 km/h über eine 30-Meter-Bahn mit Rüttelstreifen zu fahren.

- 30.000 km Intensivbelastung: Dies ist die Distanz, die von Fahrzeugen beim Haltbarkeitstest auf realen, mit Schnee und Eis bedeckten Straßen zurückgelegt wird. Der Test ist Bestandteil eines globalen Tests, der über 150.000 Kilometer bei unterschiedlichen Bedingungen durchgeführt wird, und bei dem der Verschleiß analysiert wird, dem die Autos über die Jahre unterliegen.
