  • Experience safe driving on snowy roads with a highway driving simulator

Expressway is a highway driving simulator that reproduces a high-risk event on a highway, and allows the customer to experience the event. The purpose is to evaluate the driving behavior of customers and to raise awareness about safe driving. In addition, by accumulating and analyzing the results of the customer's driving experience as data, it will be utilized for future measures related to safe driving.

  • Tire friction resistance experience

We let customers slip a piece of tires (summer tires and winter tires) on ice to experience the difference in frictional resistance and raise awareness about the replacement of winter tires.
