Intel: “We are bringing the AI PC to the car”

Intel has announced its first-generation AI-enhanced software-defined vehicle system-on-chip for the automotive sector, with the goal of enhancing in-car experiences and features such as navigation, voice assistants, and vehicle controls.

The company is aiming to introduce a family of systems-on-a-chip (SoCs) for software-defined vehicles (SDVs) by the end of 2024, starting with the first rollout in partnership with Zeekr, an EV subbrand of China’s Geely.

Intel is also focusing on energy management and EV battery standardization, with the acquisition of a fabless automotive silicon and software company and the formation of a new committee to develop a new standard for EV power management in collaboration with SAE International.
