🚗Lucid Motors Teams Up with Bolt for 25K Autonomous EVs
Lucid and Bolt aim for 25K self-driving cars
TL;DR
Lucid Motors and Bolt have partnered to deploy at least 25,000 fully autonomous vehicles, built on Lucid's mid-size EV architecture. The vehicles will use Nvidia's Hyperion system and aim to operate across Europe.
Lucid Motors and Bolt have joined forces to deploy at least 25,000 fully autonomous vehicles, built on Lucid's upcoming mid-size EV architecture. This partnership is a significant step for both companies, aiming to tackle the challenge of autonomous driving in Europe. Lucid's mid-size architecture is smaller and cheaper than its current offerings, making it more accessible for large-scale deployments. The vehicles will use Nvidia's Hyperion autonomous vehicle compute and sensing architecture, but the autonomous driving software provider remains unspecified. Bolt intends to own and operate the fleet, with the goal of deploying 100,000 autonomous vehicles on its platform by 2035.
Key Points
Lucid Motors and Bolt plan to deploy at least 25,000 fully autonomous vehicles.
The vehicles will be built on Lucid's upcoming mid-size EV architecture, smaller and cheaper than current offerings.
Lucid's mid-size architecture is designed to be more cost-effective for large-scale deployments.
The vehicles will use Nvidia's Hyperion autonomous vehicle compute and sensing architecture.
Bolt aims to own and operate the fleet, with a goal of 100,000 autonomous vehicles by 2035.
Why It Matters
If you're in the autonomous vehicle space, this partnership is a major move. Lucid's mid-size EV architecture and Bolt's ambition to deploy 100,000 autonomous vehicles by 2035 signal a significant push towards large-scale deployment of self-driving cars in Europe. The use of Nvidia's Hyperion system also sets a standard for autonomous vehicle compute and sensing architecture.
