How can I find the wheelbase of the default cars?

Hi, everyone.

I am working on ADAMS/car 2024.2. I selected to use the predefined cars, here SEDAN FWD, for my analysis. I require to know the value of wheelbase for this car. Could you please guide me on how and from which parts of the soft I can find it?

    To find the wheelbase, you could measure the distance between the front/rear wheel centres at design position - Setup > Model Diagnostics > Measure Distance; for example:

    Alternatively, you could run a Static Vehicle Characteristics event - Simulate > Full-Vehicle Analysis > Static and Quasi-Static Maneuvers > Static Vehicle Characteristics:
