Automotive Insight sat down with Jan Thorne, CEO of NexGen Motors, at their Detroit HQ to discuss the company's aggressive pivot toward electrification and connectivity.
Interviewer: BEV sales surged 40%. How critical is software?
Thorne: "Our E/E architecture is foundational. Without OTA updates, we couldn't deploy autonomy overnight. The SDV approach isn't optional—it's survival." He highlighted $2B invested in zonal controllers, slashing wiring weight by 30%.
Interviewer: What do you think are the best solutions for the battery supply chain?
Thorne: "Dual-sourcing LFP and NMC cells mitigates risks. Vertical integration is key." NexGen's gigafactory will produce 800V "StarCell" packs enabling 350kW DC fast charging: "SOC 10% to 80% in 12 minutes is our 2026 benchmark."
Interviewer: What do you think about the adaptation to the Euro 7 regulations on nitrogen oxides?
Thorne: "PHEVs use GPFs and AI-optimized thermal management. But ICE R&D is just 15% of our budget. BEVs dominate." Three new EV platforms feature Tesla-style structural battery packs—"a BIW game-changer."
Interviewer: Is V2X overhyped?
Thorne: "Wrong. Our Cleveland V2G pilot delivered 2.1 GWh back to grids. LiDAR-equipped L3 autonomy comes by 2027, but SAE Level 4 requires regulatory catch-up."
Interviewer: What are your final considerations?
Thorne: "We're slashing costs to $100/kWh via dry electrode coating. OEMs ignoring SOTIF in ADAS will fail. Period." In summary, you understood: NexGen bets everything on electrons and code.
