"We have Thor's Hammer [Volvo's distinctive headlight design] and now we have HuginCore... one of the two trusted Ravens of Oden. He sent Hugin and Muninn out to fly across the realms and observe and gather information and knowledge, which they then share with Odin that enabled him to make the right decisions as the ruler of Asgard,"
"And much like Hugin, the way we look at this technology platform, it collects information from all of the sensors, all of the actuators in the vehicle. It understands the world around the vehicle, and it enables us to actually anticipate around what lies ahead,"
"The transformation that we did to really becoming a tech company that has control over its own stack-so hardware and software... I can't lie. It's been a tough journey. So the EX90 has been a tough journey to get it to launch. And we also had some issues in the beginning, and the learnings that we took from it, we actually brought into what we're doing with EX60,"
The EX60 debuts as Volvo's next electric SUV built on a new EV-only platform featuring a cell-to-body battery pack, large weight-saving castings, and an advanced electronic architecture. The architecture runs on a handful of computers capable of more than 250 trillion operations per second and is named HuginCore after a Norse raven. HuginCore collects data from sensors and actuators, understands the vehicle's surroundings, and enables anticipatory behaviors. HuginCore represents a second-generation software-defined vehicle platform that incorporates lessons from the EX90 and the company's shift to controlling both hardware and software stacks.
