It is reportedly the first car company to get access to the latest version of Breathe’s patented, algorithm-enabled charging software for use on Volvo’s new generation fully electric cars.
By integrating Breathe’s software in Volvo Cars’ in-house developed battery management platform to optimize and improve the performance of our charging technology, it is claimed Volvo customers will be able to have faster charging times and an enhanced overall driving and charging experience.
The firm says the collaboration with Breathe is the result of a sourcing agreement for its flagship product, Breathe Charge, and represents the latest investment by the Volvo Cars Tech Fund, its corporate venture capital arm.
The move reflects its ambition to lead the development of premium electric cars and become a fully electric car maker by 2030.
