Tracks
As an independent proving ground in Pferdsfeld, we support automotive manufacturers and suppliers throughout their development processes.
Our facility expands over 320 hectares and offers a comprehensive variety of tracks for various testing and trial situations: from high speed tests on our 3 km highway to tire tests on our modern wet handling track.
More information relating to our tracks can be found below.
We look forward to hearing from you.
