A chassis dynamometer for loading a driven wheel of a vehicle. The dynamometer includes a frame defining a main axis, a tensioner and a flexible closed-loop torque transmitting element. An input member is arranged along an axis that is generally perpendicular to the main axis. The tensioner is configured to frictionally engage the flexible closed-loop torque transmitting element to the driven wheel so that the flexible closed-loop torque transmitting element transmits power between the driven wheel and the input member. A related method is also provided.
