Abstract

A steering force module on a vehicle test bench including a first main body and a transverse force actuator that is displaceable relative thereto. A transverse force being generated by a displacement of the transverse force actuator relative to the first main body, by means of which the transverse force can be applied to the steering system. Furthermore, a drivetrain module is present which consists of a second main body and a drive actuator that is rotatable relative thereto, the drive actuator being rotationally fixable by means of a second mechanical interface to a drive axle of the drivetrain, a torque that is independent of the transverse force being generated by a rotation of the drive actuator relative to the second main body is applied to the drive axle.
