With an automotive industry constantly evolving toward electric, connected and autonomous mobility, companies must be able to accelerate the launch of advanced solutions. The 3DEXPERIENCE platform helps automotive manufacturers streamline enterprise-wide collaboration and deliver data-driven approaches to manage complexity in the electric vehicle market. They can share real-time information with multiple teams worldwide, and build up their revenue pipeline by reducing engineering time, lead time and costs, maximizing the reuse of parts, increasing product quality, and overcoming regulation challenges.

Volvo Cars, which was already using Dassault Systèmes’ CATIA applications, chose to strengthen the role of Dassault Systèmes as its partner to complete its mission to be a fully electric automotive company.^[1]  The automaker can benefit from a seamless migration of its data from CATIA applications and third-party solutions, to one scalable virtual platform that facilitates collaborative vehicle design and development.

Engineers at Volvo Cars will rely on multiple Dassault Systèmes industry solution experiences based on the 3DEXPERIENCE platform to improve quality, part reuse, issue management, the test and validation cycle, requirements and traceability.  These solutions include:  “Efficient MultiEnergy Platform,” “Global Modular Architecture,” “Smart, Safe & Connected” and “SustainableMulti-functional Vehicle.”

“Automakers are under pressure to deliver new products and functions quickly and costeffectively. Volvo Cars excels in developing unique vehicle experiences. In order to build these

 best-in-class experiences, their engineers need advanced technology solutions, including the ability to combine the development of hardware and software together.           The 3DEXPERIENCE

 platform will provide this,” said Laurence Montanari, Vice President, Transportation & Mobility Industry, Dassault Systèmes.
