Samsung Electronics will cooperate with Tesla to provide autopilot chips
A few days ago, Silicon Valley electric car startup Lucid Motors just announced a strategic partnership with Samsung SDI, which will serve as the main supplier of lithium-ion battery cells for Lucid Motors. The company also said that the next generation of batteries will "far exceed the current performance benchmarks in terms of energy density, power, service life and safety performance." According to Lei Feng, Lucid Motors has always regarded Tesla as Competitor.
Recently, Reuters, Fortune and other foreign media also pointed out that Samsung Electronics will provide autopilot chip support for Tesla electric vehicles. The Korea Electronic Times quoted an anonymous source but did not mention the specific amount of the cooperation order in the report. So far, Samsung Electronics and Tesla have not responded to this report.
It is worth mentioning that, according to Lei Feng.com, as early as June this year, foreign media reported that Tesla was discussing cooperation with Samsung SDI. Reuters pointed out that starting with Model 3, Samsung SDI will be responsible for the battery supply of all Tesla electric vehicles. The Nikkei News even revealed that a large number of Samsung SDI batteries have been shipped to Tesla's R&D center in California. However, Tesla CEO Elon Musk denied these rumors on Twitter and determined that Panasonic is the exclusive battery supplier for Model 3.
Note 7 The fire incident caused Samsung Electronics to lose billions of dollars, seriously damaging the company's reputation as the world's largest smartphone manufacturer. The company hopes to expand sales of automotive-related semiconductors and displays to provide new growth targets for the company's growth. In November of this year, Samsung Electronics announced that it would spend $8 billion to acquire Harman International, hoping to further take the lead in the automotive market and grow rapidly.
