General Motors (GM) has launched a digital platform for its next generation of vehicles, including EVs and AVs, to further its aim of a future with “zero crashes, zero emissions and zero congestion”. The platform increases the power of the company’s data-processing capabilities five-fold. GM is using this new technology in conjunction with other automakers to develop autonomous driving systems that can be used by all car manufacturers. The platform is expected to move into production through the launch of GM’s 2020 Cadillac CT5 sedan. It will also be used to boost the hands-free driver-assist system, Super Cruise, in 2018 and 2019 Cadillac CT6 models.
