DETROIT  – GM announced this week that its next-generation hands-free driver-assist system, Ultra Cruise, will be powered by a scalable compute architecture featuring system-on-chips developed by American semiconductor company Qualcomm Technologies, Inc. GM will be the first company to use the Qualcomm Technologies’ Snapdragon Ride™ Platform for advanced driver assistance technology, which features an industry-leading 5-nanometer  Snapdragon™ SA8540P SoC and SA9000P artificial intelligence accelerator.

DETROIT – In a virtual keynote Wednesday at CES 2022, General Motors Chair and CEO Mary Barra outlined the waves of change that are coming as society moves toward the mass adoption of electric vehicles.

Our commitment to a vision of a world with zero crashes, zero emissions, and zero congestion has positioned us to lead. As we implement our growth strategy, we have an opportunity and, frankly, an obligation to create a better future for generations to come. That’s the Ultium Effect.”
