Together with Intel Automotive, Karma is
Creating an Open Ecosystem for SDVA, Transforming Software
Development Practices to Benefit the Entire Industry
IRVINE,
Calif., Dec. 23, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Earlier this
year, Karma Automotive announced its bilateral collaboration with
Intel Automotive to co-develop SDVA (Software Defined Vehicle
Architecture) which will underpin its upcoming vehicles starting
with the 2026 Karma Kaveya super-coupe, and to demonstrate and
validate critical concepts for the advancement of open standards
for SDVA that can be shared openly and commercially to support the
transformation of the broader automotive industry.
Now this collaboration takes a significant step forward as Karma
Automotive joins Intel Automotive at CES 2025 to demonstrate one of
multiple ways Karma vehicles will benefit from SDVA: powertrain
performance and range efficiency. In addition to this SDVA
powertrain demonstration, Karma Automotive President, Marques McCammon will be among speakers joining
onstage as Jack Weast, Intel Fellow
and Vice President of Intel Automotive, showcases how Intel's
unique combination of AI-enhanced high-performance compute,
intelligent power management and software-defined zonal controllers
built on an open ecosystem enables a more sustainable, scalable and
profitable automotive future.
"Developed in bilateral partnership with Intel Automotive, Karma
Automotive's SDVA technology will be a gamechanger for our vehicles
starting with the 1,000HP+ Karma Kaveya due in 2026, offering
unbeatable advantages across a wide range of fronts including
computing speed and power, upgradeable functionalities and vehicle
connectivity, ease of manufacture, vehicle safety, and, as we're
demonstrating at CES, powertrain performance and efficiency," says
Marques McCammon, President,
Karma Automotive. "SDVA will
transform the Karma vehicle experience, and by creating an open
ecosystem for SDVA together with Intel Automotive, we'll transform
software development practices to benefit the entire
industry."
Within Intel Automotive's presence at the Venetian Hotel,
Las Vegas, Karma will show its
Intel co-branded inverter – the device converts a direct current
(DC) supply from the vehicle's batteries into an alternating
current (AC) – which will incorporate Optimal Pulse Pattern
programming to control the vehicle's EMotors to improve efficiency.
A simulated dyno test will demonstrate 4 driving profiles –
Highway, City, Park, and Charge – illustrating wheel torque (NM),
wheel speed (RPM), power (W), and efficiency (%) achieved
through Torque Ripple Reduction and Range Boost parameters
managing powertrain and energy telemetry. Energy savings (Wh) and
range increase (Km) achieved through these processes will also be
displayed. Renderings of Intel Automotive's technology aboard the
Karma Kaveya super-coupe details locations of the E-motors and
inverters, batteries, wiring, select Zonal controllers (ZC) and
High Performance Computers(HPC).
