Start-up accelerates product development processes

at EVUM Motors

EVUM Motors relies on 3DEXPERIENCE on Cloud for its 4x4 electric utility vehicle aCar

The start-up EVUM Motors implemented the cloud-based Electro Mobility Accelerator solution on the 3DEXPERIENCE platform to connect design, engineering and manufacturing, and deliver scalable access to digital design and simulation applications in a single, secure, standards-based environment.

About the customer

EVUM Motors

EVUM Motors is the spin-off of a visionary research project from the Technical University of Munich to develop a new kind of utility vehicle that is compact, fully electric and four-wheel drive. The industrialization of the aCar research project is the driving force behind EVUM Motors as it seeks to unite economy and ecology and bring to market the ideal electric vehicle for the agriculture, craft and industry, municipal work and recreational sectors.

Business challenge

Market position

"There are some vehicles out there that have similar characteristics to the aCar, but they haven’t set out with the same objective as us in terms of simplicity."

Time to market

There is a short window of time for entry into electromobility. You have to be quick with a reliable, full developed product on the market.

Sustainability

"We want to show that electromobility does not have to be expensive."

Customer goals

Innovate

  • aCar is intuitive, purpose-oriented and highly flexible in its possible uses
  • Modularity to outfit aCar for different users, including tradesmen, vineyard workers and landscaper
  • use virtual reality to share vision with more potential customers worldwide
  • “Engineered in Germany – reinvented everywhere.”

 

Cost effective

  • aCar is both “back to roots” and “state of the art” at the same time
  • aCar is a small, light muscle man that fits every budget and is also kind to the environment.

 

Smart industrialization

  • enabling manufacturing with very low investment costs
  • expand production into developing and emerging countries
  • manufacture many of the vehicles’ components on location to build stronger local economies

 

There is a short window of time for entry into electromobility. You have to be quick with a reliable, full developed product on the market. 3DEXPERIENCE on cloud helps us to accelerate development.

Approach

As a start-up, it was critical that EVUM Motors had access to enterprise-level technology and gain the full capabilities it needed to get off the ground quickly. It recognized that the cloud would help it move its vehicle from design to manufacturing at unprecedented speed and scale.

EVUM Motors implemented the cloud-based Electro Mobility Accelerator solution on the 3DEXPERIENCE platform to connect design, engineering and manufacturing, and deliver scalable access to digital design and simulation applications in a single, secure, standards-based environment. EVUM Motors is using the proven end-to-end engineering solution to industrialize production and track progress from design to customer delivery.

“When starting our business, we discussed our needs with CENIT who proposed the 3DEXPERIENCE platform as scalable and flexible solution,” Šoltés said. “They helped us transfer all data from our student licenses to business licenses and have supported us throughout. When we have a question or issue, CENIT is our first responder. They handled the implementation and, now that we’re up and running, we know that we can turn to them if we need additional licenses or training.”
