The passenger’s comfort is of vital importance in today’s car, even more so in the future autonomous car. Its thorough analysis requires the use of objective measures, but the subjectivity of the passenger must also be considered. The relationship between both aspects is an uncommon research avenue, and could greatly benefit from the use of a vehicle simulator. This study use a simulator to replicate a journey with diverse characteristics that numerous passengers may experience (including engaging in different activities). The appropriate variables for a proper comfort analysis are determined in this study, resulting in a comprehensive database for the same purpose. Additionally, a passenger comfort based questionnaire is developed and applied to obtain the subjective assessment of different passengers. The results of these questionnaires help not only in the identification and study of the self perception of comfort by the passengers but also in the use of the simulator for comfort experiments. The detailed comparison between both the objective approach of signal analysis and the subjective approach of questionnaires that is performed thanks to the simulator creates a foundation for future research and narrows the existing research gap.
