TomTom and Delphi Technologies Deliver Exceptional 10-Percent Plus Fuel Saving for Passenger Cars
18 Giugno 2020 - 2:00PM
TomTom (TOM2), the location technology specialist, and Delphi
Technologies PLC (DLPH), the pioneers in propulsion technologies,
today announced that real-world drive tests of Delphi Technologies’
advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) combined with the TomTom
ADAS Map delivered fuel savings of more than 10 percent in
passenger cars.
This successful proof of concept was achieved
using a Delphi Technologies’ Intelligent Driving prototype vehicle
equipped with its latest advanced propulsion software and TomTom’s
ADAS map. The testing involved a range of routes to validate the
system’s fuel economy benefits under a variety of real-world
driving conditions. The TomTom ADAS Map provides enriched, highly
accurate data on speed limits, lane information, gradient, road
curvature and traffic signs. Delphi Technologies’ Intelligent
Driving software suite uses the TomTom data to anticipate the road
ahead, optimizing the car’s propulsion system for improved speed
and control for reduced energy consumption.
Testing results show that powertrain efficiency
improved dramatically when TomTom’s ADAS map was activated.
Conducted with different drivers who selected their preferred
routes, the testing also demonstrated the system’s adaptability and
capacity to deliver results without compromising the driving
experience or extending driving times.
“The TomTom ADAS Map is a tried, tested and
proven technology, assisting over 1.5 million automated vehicles’
driving safety and comfort around the world today,” said Willem
Strijbosch, Head of Autonomous Driving at TomTom. “Our
collaboration with Delphi Technologies shows that the latest
generation of our high-quality ADAS technology can dramatically
reduce running costs by reducing fuel consumption.”
“The significant efficiency gains from our
collaboration with TomTom demonstrate how our proprietary
Intelligent Driving system, combined with the right, high-fidelity
mapping data, can enable everyday vehicles to drive cleaner, better
and further, without compromises,” said Paul Farrell, senior vice
president, Strategy and Corporate Development, Delphi Technologies.
“We have an exciting solution backed by real-world data that our
customers can use today – and tomorrow – to provide tangible,
real-world benefits.”
