Panasonic has had a supply agreement with Tesla for years, but in 2020 it became the lead developer of Tesla’s highly anticipated new battery design—the 4680.
Before, the government vehicle safety regulations meant side mirrors. When there are no drivers and only passengers, how does the regulation change? That's what the NHTSA is considering now.
Just as important as knowing how to properly calibrate an ADAS system is knowing how to fix a calibration cluster-whoops. Check out these troubleshooting tips from I-CAR.
As auto shops look toward the service and repair of the next generation of complex electric vehicles, it’s a wonder that some DIYers have been tinkering in the EV space for decades.
Panelists offered insight to how various sensor types and ADAS features will blend to form the end goal of safer vehicle transportation. And the tech that ends up making it happen will be serviced and repaired in shops like yours.
If your shop had access to (anonymous) real-time performance data from thousands of vehicles in your area, how would you prepare and market your services?
Follow these tips to make sure your operation is collecting, handling and securing customer data properly. Plus, learn what it takes to create a website privacy policy.
Who's buying EVs right now? And more importantly, who's most likely to buy them in the near future? This is a question that OEs and repair operations want answered, and one researcher has some insight.
The program director for Michigan Tech's Hybrid Electric Vehicle curriculum talks about launching a unique program and the state of the hybrid-to-EV transition.
The goal of connected, autonomous transportation looms out there, but there are lots of processes that need to be worked out before getting there, such as making sure systems can determine the cause of a traffic jam.
Just as important as knowing how to properly calibrate an ADAS system is knowing how to fix a calibration cluster-whoops. Check out these troubleshooting tips from I-CAR.
There are many implications for ADAS in modified vehicles, and groups are now working on processes and testing protocols that will ensure safe ADAS systems can work and be replicated by repairers.
The ability of repairers to properly calibrate and repair these systems is a critical link in the operation of ADAS. A new report shows the efficacy of various ADAS systems when functioning as intended.
As we learn more about the sensitivities of these sensor systems, it becomes clear that there's more to ADAS calibrations than just square footage. It's about the space environment.
How might the style of data transmission from a connected vehicle affect the effectiveness of a telematics-based insurance plan? One company is working on a solution.
