Abstract This report presents an updated description of a vehicle simulation program, VEHSIM, which can determine the fuel economy and performance of a specified vehicle over a defined route as it executes a given driving schedule. Vehicle input accommodated by VEHSIM include accessories, engine, rear axle, converter transmission, tires, aerodynamic drag coefficient, and shift logic. The report is comprised of four volumes. Volume IV describes a simulation of the Integrated Overdrive Transmission with a split-torque converter.
