Question
I would like to update vehicles state information (position, speed) step by step, and not give them as predefine values. For example, I would like to take this information from a traffic simulator, like SUMO.

You can set the position and orientation properties directly. Here's an example setting the X position to drive up a straight road.
d = drivingScenario;
road(d, [0 0; 25 0])
v = actor(d, 'Position', [1 0 0]);
plot(d);
for index = 1:0.1:20
v.Position = [index 0 0];
advance(d);
pause(0.01)
end
And Here's an example settings the Yaw with the car appearing to be spinning out
for index = 1:0.1:20
v.Position = [index 0 0];
v.Yaw = index*5;
advance(d);
pause(0.01)
end
