Electrification is the main growth driver of the market and it is re-shaping the industry with New Players, New Businesses and New Service-based Models
MARKET REQUESTS
- Safety first
- Small EVs: Four/three/two wheels
- Affordable prices and low Total Cost of Ownership
- High connectivity level with high security level
- Personalization
MANUFACTURING NEEDS
- Low investments
- Flexibility and multipurpose platforms
- Blockchain certified “Made in Portugal, Italy, Poland…”
- High convergence with renewable energies: V2H, V2G..
Changing needs
Urban Mobility Opportunities
Operators
- e-Bikes the most widespread: +50 Millions year
with a further CAGR of 5-7% for the next 5 years
- The highest CAGR is registered for small three
(India >800,000 e-rickshaws in 2017) and small four wheel vehicles (China 2.1 Million Low Speed EVs produced in 2018). Including ASIAN a 50% to 70% CAGR in the next 5 years is likely,
- Japan the first country experiencing urban
concentration, today about 40% of vehicles in the roads are Kei-cars
Vehicles
- GM’s $500M invested in Lyft and owns
Cruise Automation
- BMW’s ride-sharing service, ReachNow
- VW’s $300 million investment in Gett
- Tesla going to its own ride-sharing platform
- Toyota Motor Corp. has backed Uber for an
undisclosed amount
- Daimler owns Hailo, MyTaxi, Taxibeat, and
Ridescout
- Ford acquired shuttle service Chariot and
bought a majority stake in Argo.AI for $1B
Complexity of current design
- Complexity of
moulds to shape metal sheets in a 3D geometry
- Complexity
- f
tooling to assemble/weld the moulded components
- Lack of flexibility to reconfigure the
structure: great difference between chassis with one and two doors
- Large production volumes necessary
for acceptable ROIs.
- A large scale mfg line costs >100 M€
Complexity of current manufacturing
Challenges
q Electric Vehicles must be Born Electric1 q New companies thinking they can compete with the traditional OEMs on their technologies are Born Dead2 companies. (October 2019 Dyson has cancelled its plans to build an electric car, claiming the project is «not commercially viable3»). q Transforming a conventional Factory into an Industry 4.0 environment is a nightmare q Transforming an Industry 4.0 into an AI 4.0 environment is another nightmare (The data and the full environment have to be preparred for a Fully-distributed AI with lifelong on-device learning). q New Factories must be Born AI 4.0.

Manufacturing: The Challenge
Develop a production environment capable of:
- Flexible manufacturing implementing Industry AI 4.0 technologies
- Low cost investment
- Automotive grade suppliers
- Best in class vehicles for safety and performance
- Best in class vehicles and plant for implemented level of security
Microfactory co-developed with Comau
The Output
The vehicle architecture
Minimal changes in the chassis to manufacture in a flexible and agile way a variety of vehicles. Designs worldwide patented.
Crash Tests
Safety tests performed for all vehicle architectures
From More Than One Year To Minutes
Design, Construction of Moulds, Stamping, Robotized line assembly… >> 1 year H2020 DEMOBASE project: AI driven design of chassis: few minutes - no moulds - no stamping - no robotized assembly - Ultra simplified templates for a Quasi Self-assembled chassis meeting full frontal, off-axis and lateral crash tests.
The vehicle family
FOCUS
Scope:
- Micro-factory for multi-model portfolio
- Entire plant co-development
- Design for manufacturability
- Standard solution for easy replication
Flexible and Agile Production Plant
Benefits: ü Partnering from concept product design to vehicle production launch ü Scalability: from manual to fully automatized solutions ü Station Modularity and easy re-configurability Technologies and Innovations: ü Welding, fastening, vision systems ü In-line testing and quality gates ü Industry 4.0 architecture
