(AAM), (NYSE: AXL) está ajudando a desenvolver jovens talentos de engenharia e melhorar a eficiência dos veículos elétricos por meio de um patrocínio visionário doEcoCAR EV Challenge. Na competição estudantil de quatro anos, equipes universitárias competem pela engenharia de veículos elétricos a bateria de próxima geração (BEVs) e usam automação e veículo para tudo (V2X) para criar novos recursos e tecnologias de veículos para descarbonizar a indústria automotiva.

"A AAM tem uma longa história de apoio à educação STEM em todos os níveis e ajuda a desenvolver a próxima geração de talentos automotivos", disse David C. Dauch, presidente e CEO da AAM. "Como patrocinadores visionários do EcoCAR EV Challenge, estamos ajudando os alunos a aprender sobre mobilidade sustentável e alimentar sua paixão por engenharia."

O patrocínio de quatro anos da AAM é composto por contribuições financeiras e "créditos em espécie", como software e suporte de engenharia. De maneira mais significativa, a AAM está fornecendo a cinco equipes universitárias sua principal unidade de acionamento elétrico de plataforma configurável 3 em 1. Esta próxima geração de EDU combina um motor de alta velocidade, caixa de velocidades compacta e inversor integrado, oferecendo uma redução de 40% no espaço de embalagem. O EDU da AAM oferece as melhores melhorias da categoria em eficiência volumétrica e de massa, densidade de potência e perda de energia reduzida. Também tem o potencial de melhorar o alcance – ajudando ainda mais os veículos elétricos a criarem uma vantagem de pegada de carbono.

Por meio de seu patrocínio, a AAM está desenvolvendo relacionamentos com os principais talentos da engenharia – um total de mais de 2.600 estudantes diversos de toda a América do Norte estão participando do EcoCAR EV Challenge.

  • risks related to a failure of our information technology systems and networks, and risks associated with current and emerging technology threats and damage from computer viruses, unauthorized access, cyber attack and other similar disruptions;
  • global economic conditions;
  • our ability to maintain satisfactory labor relations and avoid work stoppages;
  • our suppliers', our customers' and their suppliers' ability to maintain satisfactory labor relations and avoid work stoppages;
