EVs: Sharing a common language for a sustainable future

A key to successfully engineering ground-breaking EVs is enabling collaboration between car body in white and battery teams that accelerates innovation by means of working across common software platforms to efficiently share ideas, solutions, and data

Two engineers collaborate on electric vehicle design using a shared engineering software platform.

The climate crisis has boosted demand for electric vehicles (EVs), pushing car manufacturers to commit to going all-electric by 2030. To meet market expectations in this timeframe, manufacturers must quickly find new ways to overcome EV design challenges.

Unlike traditional vehicles, EVs involve intricate interactions between thermal, electrical, and structural aspects. To address the impact battery decisions have on body design, teams working on each element need a common design language for effective collaboration. Failing to do so can lead to costly errors and delays in EV market releases.

This paper explores stages in EV engineering related to battery integration into car bodies, demonstrating the need for efficient collaboration through shared engineering software platforms. Download the whitepaper to see how effective teamwork is crucial for designing sustainable EVs that meet consumer demands for range, safety, comfort, and faster charging.
