Chevy Gives Auto Show Attendees 4-D Virtual Reality Experience

DURAND, Mich.,–– If you didn't get a chance to make a trip to the North American International Auto Show, you missed out on a wild ride. Imagine going on a virtual experience behind the wheel of a Chevy vehicle where you track through various terrains and testing sites. The popular automotive company offered a behind-the-scenes look at vehicle testing. Chevy gave auto show attendees a 4-D virtual reality experience that was truly entertaining and offered guests a realistic look at how each vehicle is tested on the road.

Chevy Gives Auto Show Attendees 4-D Virtual Reality Experience

"Chevrolet is committed to delivering high-quality, durable vehicles to withstand some of the harshest weather conditions and most unique driving situations people encounter today," said Alan Batey, president of GM North America and head of Global Chevrolet. "With this new Chevrolet Virtual Dynamics Lab experience, we are offering consumers the opportunity to be immersed in our rigorous testing processes and to better understand the capability built into our lineup of vehicles."

This curated 4-D experience offers attendees a virtual 360-degree ride in the front passenger seat of a vehicle that takes on several different types of terrain. These courses include gravel roads, extreme temperature labs, and rock climbs that can be found at GM's various testing facilities.


Take a glance at GM's Testing:

* Before the first 2019 Silverado is delivered, it will accumulate a whopping 7 million miles of testing and validation.

* GM's Milford Proving Ground test facility encompasses around 4,000 acres of surfaces that equal about 137 miles of 2 lane road. This distance would take you from Detroit all the way to Fort Wayne, Indiana.

* The chambers that each vehicle is tested in simulate intense environmental conditions, which include temps from -40 degrees to 130 degrees Fahrenheit, humidity from 10 to 90 percent, altitudes from -700 to 12,500 feet., and wind speeds from 0 to 100 mph.

Chevy Gives Auto Show Attendees 4-D Virtual Reality Experience

Chevy gave auto show attendees a 4-D virtual reality experience to truly reveal a first-hand look at vehicle testing. The unparalleled experience that guests were able to catch a glimpse of really showcased the extreme measures that Chevy goes through to test each and every one of its new vehicles. The North American International Auto Show was open to the public January 20th through the 28th of this year. If you want to take a look at what the NAIAS offered to visitors this year, you can visit the official website.
