Electric Vehicle Technical Briefing Compares Secrets of Tesla and Other Leading EVs

AUBURN HILLS, Mich., May 30, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Calling all automotive engineers looking for objective technical information about today's leading electric vehicles (EVs). Munro & Associates, world leaders in the Lean Design® methodology, teardown benchmarking and design optimization, is hosting an Electric Vehicle Technical Briefing on Friday, June 21 at its world headquarters in Auburn Hills, Mich. During the event, the Munro team will present an engineering comparison of four leading EVs: the Tesla Model 3; the BMW i3; the Chevy Bolt; and the Jaguar I-PACE.

The daylong briefing will provide:

• An overview of "EV Big 3:" motors; batteries; and electronics;
• A technology review with insight into the engineering and designs of some of the other innovative vehicles on the road today;
• A tour of Munro's Benchmarking Investigation, Innovation & Implementation Center;
• The opportunity to participate in an engineering deep dive of today's most advanced EVs and technologies; and
• An in-depth view into how participants can analyze products and perform their own re-engineering.

Unlike many "Power Point Conferences," this hands-on briefing offers parts of all three vehicles available on tables and A-frames with knowledgeable Munro engineers providing detailed descriptions and key take-ways from each part of the car. There will also be a hoist review of the Jaguar I-PACE, as a precursor to discussions on the I-PACE electric motor.

The cost is $199 and includes hands-on part access, handouts, lunch and a post-event social hour. For a detailed agenda and registration information, please visit: http://bit.ly/2HJF8dr.
