The emerging next-generation connected cars require manufacturers to integrate traditional automotive design disciplines with Internet-connectivity, alternative power-sources, and autonomous driving technologies.
“We are taking a user-centric, technology-first approach to vehicle design with the ultimate aim of connecting the automotive experience to the rest of our customers’ life,” said Nick Sampson, senior vice president, Product R&D, Faraday Future. “Dassault Systèmes’ focus on customer experience and its technologies will enable us to meet our schedule to deliver the most advanced electric vehicles into the market.”
Based on the 3DEXPERIENCE platform, ‘Target Zero Defect’ and ‘Smart Safe & Connected’ industry solution experiences were fully deployed worldwide across the company within two weeks. This is claimed to have enabled Faraday Future to design, simulate, and prepare for production in ways that were not previously possible.
Olivier Sappin, vice president, Transportation & Mobility Industry at Dassault Systèmes, said: "Faraday Future is attempting to transform the transportation and mobility industry. By choosing to partner with Dassault Systèmes, it has a proven solution it deployed quickly and fits with its very rapid and aggressive development schedule.”
In addition to helping Faraday Future turn its concept car into reality, the 3DEXPERIENCE platform will also be used in Faraday Future’s manufacturing facility in North Las Vegas, where it will be used for plant optimisation, quality control, and real-time visibility into facility operations.
