The paper presents a model derived for real time simulation. It has been applied in low-cost PC-based autoPW driving simulator built at the University of Technology, Faculty of Transportation, Poland. The following assumptions have been done: even, horizontal road surface, no vertical, pitch and roll vibrations of the body as well unsprung masses. The normal reactions of the road are described in quasi-static way. Compliances of steering system as well as description of six aerodynamic drag components are taken into account. The tire model is based on HSRI-UMTRI model with addition of aligning moment description. The model was experimentally verified.
