What Ultium Means for the All-Electric Future
The Ultium Platform from General Motors will be the heartbeat of our all-electric future — it will be the basis of all upcoming electric Chevrolet models, like the Equinox EV. Thanks to Ultium’s pouch cell design, it will easily accommodate a wide range of EV styles and sizes. Ultium gives Chevrolet electric vehicles range, power, and flexibility for all.
The GM Ultium Platform is the foundation of a modular, flexible EV lineup. It features modular battery and drive unit combinations to make electric vehicles for everyone. The platform is flexible enough to build a wide range of trucks, SUVs, crossovers, cars, and commercial vehicles with outstanding design, performance, range, and affordability. Ultium will debut on the all-new Chevy electric truck, the Silverado EV!
Ultium Powers EVs
Ultium Drive, made up of electric motors, single-speed transmissions, and their integrated power electronics, gives Chevy electric cars their power and torque. With a modular, flexible design and a common cell across different vehicle types, the battery is the heart of the Ultium system. The system uses cells stacked vertically (on pickups and SUVs) or horizontally (on performance vehicles), allowing Chevy to build electric vehicles for every customer and segment.
A Better Battery Management System
With Ultium, GM will be the first automaker to use an almost completely wireless battery management system for EVs. Fewer wires equal less weight and a longer range when you’re out on the road. Making Chevrolet batteries easier to reuse for second-life applications, the platform will power multiple types of EVs from a common set of battery components.
360 Degree Charging Infrastructure
Ultium Charge 360 is GM’s holistic charging approach. It will integrate charging networks, brand mobile apps, and other products and services with the goal of simplifying the overall charging experience for electric vehicle owners at home and in public.
