The Battery Electric Vehicle Architectures (BEVA) Detroit Congress is designed to deliver realistic commercial options, technology strategies, and engineering solutions in the way forward to the mass-market adoption of electric vehicles. The agenda sessions will explore the evolution of dedicated BEV platforms, architectures, and lightweight integrated body structures. New approaches to battery, thermal management, and HV electrical systems integration from a whole vehicle perspective will provide insights into delivering attributes such as affordability, desirability, range, and performance for the end customer.
