Autoliv IncAutoliv launches new virtual testing platform with Toyota as first customer
Autoliv, the worldwide leader in automotive safety systems, is advancing vehicle safety through its new Human Body Model Safety Suite, a virtual testing platform designed to complement physical crash testing, with Toyota as the first customer to evaluate its capabilities. The platform combines an advanced digital human body model with software tools for analysis and visualization, providing insights into occupant response and injury mechanisms that physical dummies cannot offer. Autoliv's Chief Technology Officer, Fabien Dumont, emphasized that virtual testing helps engineers optimize safety performance earlier in the development process, supporting the company's vision of saving more lives. Toyota has begun using the suite as part of its virtual safety development activities, and Autoliv plans to make the platform broadly available across the industry in 2026. The company, which reported sales of $10.8 billion in 2025 and employs 64,000 people across 25 countries, says its products saved approximately 40,000 lives and reduced around 600,000 injuries last year.
