General Motors aims to cut vehicle development timelines from five to two years using artificial intelligence.
Concurrent Engineering Model
GM uses an internal ai system to enable designers, engineers, and manufacturers to work simultaneously.
Themed Aero Technology
Themed aero uses machine learning to generate aerodynamic results in 60 seconds instead of 60 hours.
Faster Battery Development
GM's new ai process reduced lithium manganese battery development from 60,000 lab hours to 256 lab hours.
Chevrolet Silverado Engine
The 2027 chevrolet silverado v-8 engine was developed in a third of the time at 80 percent of prototyping cost.
Corvette ZR1 Speed Test
Virtual engineering predicted 233 mph top speed for corvette zr1 after ai recalibration.
Quality Assurance
GM claims faster development leads to higher quality cars with improved product iterations.
The bottom line
General Motors aims to cut vehicle development timelines to two years using AI for faster design iterations and testing.
