The Fusion 360 model, which offers basic capabilities along with technological enhancements, allows the user to pay only for the additional functions that they need. The Simulation Extension allows users to explore various factors, including the performance of an object under thermal and mechanical stress, even before the product is created.

Designers and engineers can now choose the most appropriate option for them and find a solution that will reduce weight, material costs, and optimize product functionality. Previously, analysis capabilities were only available on a paid basis. The Simulation Extension gives users unrestricted access to existing full-access analysis capabilities. The Product Design Extension allows users to automate the creation of complex features that are typically time consuming when created using traditional 3D modeling methods. The Product Design Extension provides users with design tools to automate the creation of complex functional elements, such as lattice structures and patterns of elements based on algorithms that are time consuming if created by traditional 3D modeling methods.

The release of these extensions to the market is expected in early 2022. The updated capabilities are designed to bring more functionality to the platform from the point of view of design, modeling and engineering. According to the company, two extensions have been added to Fusion 360: the Product Design Extension and the Simulation Extension.
