Find out how this T&M customer used the 3DEXPERIENCE platform on Cloud to design each of their prototypes in a matter of months, and launch their electric truck to market at speed.

The electric vehicle race to net zero

To achieve carbon neutrality by 2050, Korea – like every nation across the globe – needs to take major action around sustainability. Transport and logistics are key areas of focus, since the logistics industry currently accounts for almost a quarter (24%) of global CO2 emissions, a number that is expected to rise to 40% over the next three decades if not addressed.

Recognizing this, Equal – a start-up company incubated at Korea University’s Maker’s Space – is delivering on a game-changer in the logistics industry.

Accelerating designing speed

A fast and efficient process minimized the chance of errors, and enabled Equal to refine two prototypes before launching the third prototype as their core product, the LOFI III.

• LOFI I                3 months
• LOFI II               5 months
• LOFI III              9 months
