The company said its 800V HVCH is a compact and lightweight design with fast heating times, ensuring efficient heat transfer and fast charging.

Safety features prevent overheating and will automatically turn the heater off.

The product was claimed to be the first of its kind in North America and the agreement followed a previous deal in which BorgWarner supplied 400V products to the OEM.

Production starts in 2025 at the supplier’s Cadillac, Michigan facility.
