The MAX Alliance is a project that builds a cooperation framework among industry, academia, research institutes, and government with the aim of helping South Korea overcome a crisis in manufacturing and leap forward as a leading nation in manufacturing AX (AI Transformation). MAX is organized into 11 sectors spanning the broader manufacturing value chain, and the participating companies and institutions include the AI future mobility sector players such as KGM.
These participants will carry out a national project commissioned by the Ministry of Trade, Industry and Energy. The project is titled the development of vehicle platform technology for supporting SDV in various OEM vehicle models and classes, and they will build a cooperation framework for the project from technology development through demonstration.
Under the project, KGM will review the required specifications for AI autonomous driving vehicles and SDV vehicle solutions and lead the integration and optimization of the related technologies to secure vehicle competitiveness. KGM will pursue the localization of drive motors and also pursue the pre-development of core hardware platforms and application software. Through this, KGM said it aims to lay the groundwork for internalizing advanced autonomous driving technologies.
The participating institutions will divide up their roles and carry out the project. Hyundai Mobis will handle SDV platform and technology support, while Rideflux will be responsible for developing AI autonomous driving solutions and applying AI technology to the LV.2+ control assistance system (DCAS). The Korea Automotive Technology Institute will provide technical consulting on SDV and driving assistance solutions, and the Intelligent Automotive Parts Promotion Institute will support vehicle testing cooperation and the establishment of driving test infrastructure.
KGM CEO Hwang Ki-young said the company will work closely with the participating companies across technology, testing, and R&D planning to successfully integrate new vehicles with SDV platforms and autonomous driving technology through this project. Hwang said he expects to verify the mass-production viability of EEVP (Electric and Electronic Vehicle Platform) and secure an SDV platform. He added that the company also expects to internalize core technological capabilities.
