What is DynoDrive?

DynoDrive is a cutting edge performance analysis feature developed by Alientech and built into the KESS3 tuning device. It is engineered to calculate and validate a vehicle’s real-time performance data—such as horsepower, torque, and acceleration—while driving under actual road conditions.
By connecting to the vehicle’s OBD diagnostic system and using the integrated GPS module in KESS3, DynoDrive eliminates the need for traditional dynamometer equipment. It allows tuners and enthusiasts to analyze the results of modifications directly on the road, making performance testing faster, more accessible, and cost effective.

Pros and Cons of DynoDrive

Advantages:
*Easy Activation: DynoDrive is quickly enabled via the Alientech Suite software by selecting the vehicle, entering key data, and starting the test.
*High Accuracy: It combines GPS with OBD data to deliver accurate readings of acceleration, position, and speed.
*Custom Testing Setup: Users can input custom parameters like vehicle weight, fuel level, RPM, and gear to match their exact configuration.
*Consistent Testing: Allows repeated tests under the same conditions, which is essential for comparing modifications.
*Data Export: Provides comprehensive numerical and graphical outputs that can be exported as PDF files for review and sharing.
*Drag Test Included: With the KESS3 Upgrade 2.08, users gain the Drag Test function for measuring acceleration, distance, and braking at no extra activation cost if DynoDrive is already active.

Disadvantages
*Not for Public Roads: Due to safety and legal regulations, it should not be used on public streets or highways.
*Not a Total Replacement: In some advanced lab-based testing scenarios, a traditional dynamometer may still be preferable for its full control and stability under load.

Does KESS V2 still work?

Yes, the KESS V2 still works and can be used for ECU programming. However, no further updates or technical support will be provided, and newer protocols or vehicle models may not be supported. While some functions may still be activated on KESS V2, it's recommended to upgrade to KESS3 to benefit from the latest features, updates, and broader compatibility with modern vehicles.

Price of DynoDrive

DynoDrive is available to both Master and Slave users of the KESS3 system. It does not require a recurring subscription and can be added separately to existing KESS3 hardware.
The exact price varies depending on location and distributor. Generally, DynoDrive offers a more economical alternative to purchasing or accessing a physical dynamometer.

DynoDrive Activation via Alientech Suite:

DynoDrive can be activated easily through the Alientech Suite with a simple and user-friendly process. Just select the target vehicle, input the required data for the calculation, and start the test — the function will be ready to use instantly.

DynoDrive or Dynamometer: Which One is Better?

That depends on your needs: A traditional dynamometer is best suited for precise, laboratory like environments and complex testing where consistent load control is critical.
DynoDrive, on the other hand, is ideal for real-world performance validation, especially for tuning shops and enthusiasts who need flexibility and affordability.

So, in summary, if a dynamometer is out of reach for you and you're tired of constant travel, if you don't have a large budget, if you want
