The AVL X-Rig™ System goes beyond conventional rigging by optimizing the entire testing workflow. Vehicle preparation, transport, and exchange are separated from the actual testing process, enabling a seamless transition from setup to validation.
Its modular design combines standardized pallets, couplings, and frames to support fast, repeatable vehicle integration across a wide range of test environments. The result is a more efficient workflow with higher testbed availability, greater operational flexibility, and improved productivity throughout the entire validation process.
AVL X-Rig™ Light-Duty
Designed for passenger cars and light commercial vehicles, AVL X-Rig™ Light-Duty enables fast, repeatable vehicle integration for complete vehicle powertrain testing. Its modular pallet, baseplate-free frame, and fast CV shaft coupling simplify vehicle installation while providing the flexibility to accommodate different vehicle architectures and propulsion systems. The solution supports standardized workflows, reduces setup effort, and enables efficient vehicle preparation before testing begins. By minimizing changeover times and maximizing productive testbed operation, AVL X-Rig™ Light-Duty helps accelerate development and validation processes.
Highlights
- Fast and repeatable vehicle integration
- Modular pallet, frame, and fast CV shaft coupling
- Compatible with ICE, hybrid, and battery electric vehicles
- Optional automation for faster vehicle exchange
- Climate chamber compatible
AVL X-Rig™ Heavy-Duty
Designed for trucks, buses, agricultural, construction, and other heavy-duty vehicles, AVL X-Rig™ Heavy-Duty transforms conventional testing workflows by moving vehicle preparation outside the test cell. Its robust pallet system enables vehicles to be prepared, transported, and exchanged before entering the test environment, significantly reducing non-productive test cell occupancy. The modular solution streamlines vehicle handling, accelerates changeovers, and maximizes utilization of high-value heavy-duty testbeds. By enabling faster validation workflows, AVL X-Rig™ Heavy-Duty increases overall testing efficiency for demanding commercial vehicle applications.

The AVL X-Rig™ System is an integral part of our vehicle powertrain testing solutions, enabling efficient testing of complete vehicles under realistic and repeatable laboratory conditions. By simplifying vehicle integration and reducing preparation time, X-Rig™ creates the foundation for highly productive testing workflows.
One of its key applications is vehicle powertrain energy flow testing, where the complete powertrain is analyzed under dynamic operating conditions. Combined with AVL Vehicle Powertrain TS™, X-Rig™ enables engineers to evaluate energy flows throughout the entire drivetrain, optimize overall system efficiency, and accelerate the development of electrified and hybrid vehicles.
Efficient vehicle testing starts long before the test begins. With the AVL X-Rig™ System, we transform vehicle preparation into a seamless workflow, maximizing productive test time and enabling engineers to focus on what matters most: delivering reliable validation results.”
