At the Consumer Electronic Show 2019 (CES) in Las Vegas, BMW and Chinese tech giant Alibaba announced that the Tmall Genie (a smart speaker of Alibaba Group) intelligent voice assistant will be integrated into such BMW's models as the 3 Series and 5 Series. Production models carrying the Alibaba's technology is set to hit the market in October 2019.

The latest cooperation allows BMW car owners who have the Tmall Genie-compatible facility at home to operate vehicle functions conveniently. For instance, using the Alibaba-developed voice assistant, users can turn on the in-car air conditioner and call up appointment stored in the BMW Connected mobility agenda and the navigation planning to their destinations just sitting at home. Besides, the voice-driven device can calculate and present mileage, battery life and fuel consumption for users.

In addition, Tmall Genie's “AI plus Vehicle” solution will be integrated into the AliOS-based Banma in-car operating system and access to AutoNavi's A+Box intelligent mobility solution—both of them are backed by Alibaba Group—working in more flexible cooperative modes. Meanwhile, smart home developers and manufacturers will be benefitted from this voice AI technology by agreeing the open communication protocol issued by Alibaba AI Labs.

As a auto parts supplier, Chongqing Feilong Jiangli will keep up-to-date information on new information and new energy industries

      link hidden, please login to view Electric car maker Fisker said on June 12 it would recall more than 18,000 vehicles in North America and Europe due to software glitches and non-compliance with safety standards, the latest setback for the cash-strapped electric car start-up.
      Fisker is voluntarily recalling 11,201 Ocean vehicles sold in the United States, Canada and Europe to fix a software issue that could cause the vehicles to enter safe state protected mode, potentially causing the motors to lose power.
      In addition, Fisker is recalling 6,864 Ocean vehicles in the United States because the dashboard and display prompt ICONS do not comply with the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS). The company will also recall an additional 281 vehicles in Canada as a result.

      The startup plans to address these issues with an OTA update to Ocean OS in-car software by June 30. The company said vehicles that have been updated to the latest version of the software are not affected by the recall.
      The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) is investigating four safety incidents involving the Ocean SUV, the only Fisker model currently in production. NHTSA said last month that it was investigating complaints that the Ocean Automatic Emergency Braking System was accidentally activated.
      Cash-strapped Fisker is looking for alternatives after talks with a major automaker over a potential investment collapsed. The company’s Austrian subsidiary filed for bankruptcy protection in May.

      BMW Receives Funding from the EU Hydrogen Project

      As part of the EU’s 1.4 billion euro ($1.52 billion) state aid package, BMW is the only car manufacturer to receive EU funding for a hydrogen project.
      Other companies that have received funding include tire maker Michelin Group and aircraft manufacturing and development company Airbus. The European Commission said on May 28 that the initial funding is expected to unlock an additional 3.3 billion euros in private investment.
      The Hy2Move program is the fourth round of funding related to hydrogen energy and focuses on mobility. The hydrogen energy initiative has been declared one of the key projects of common European interest and is expected to play an important role in the EU’s 2050 carbon neutrality goal. Other important projects of common European interest include semiconductors and batteries for electric vehicles.
      Details of BMW’s project and the amount of funding will be announced shortly after the scheme receives final approval and restrictions on publication of trade secrets are lifted, the commission said. BMW is one of the few companies to support hydrogen fuel cell technology and has launched a pilot fleet of hydrogen-powered X5 SUVs.

      The iX5 features a hybrid battery/fuel cell drivetrain with a total output of 401 HP (295 kW). Two 700-bar carbon-fiber-reinforced plastic hydrogen storage tanks can hold about 6 kilograms of hydrogen and travel 504 kilometers (303 miles) in WLTP conditions. For now, BMW has yet to commit to mass production of the iX5.
      Other automakers backing hydrogen include Toyota, Renault, Hyundai and Honda. Toyota makes the Mirai fuel cell sedan, and Renault says hydrogen can power the internal combustion engine in its Alpine range of sports cars.
      The “Hy2Move” project will be co-funded by Estonia, France, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, Slovakia and Spain.
      A total of 11 companies plan to participate in 13 programs. The European Commission says it expects to create 3,300 jobs by 2031.
