The hydrogen powertrain technology behind the JCB Hydromax world land speed record

Poppe + Potthoff supplied Topaq system components for JCB’s hydrogen-powered Hydromax vehicle, which has set a new world land speed record for hydrogen-powered vehicles at the Bonneville Salt Flats in Utah. The components were used in the vehicle’s high-performance drivetrain. With an officially measured average speed of 406.320mph (653.909km/h), the JCB Hydromax surpassed the previous record and…

Gaussian scene reconstruction and AI to be used to accelerate AV simulation

Five AI, part of Bosch Mobility, has announced plans to develop simulation technology aimed at helping automotive manufacturers and suppliers develop autonomous vehicles more safely, quickly and cost-effectively. Backed by UK government funding through the CAM Pathfinder program, this new technology combines Gaussian scene reconstruction and generative AI techniques to create highly realistic…

High-speed x-ray technology exposes hidden battery cell behavior

Cell manufacturers and vehicle integrators have always had to rely on simulations, destructive testing methods and indirect measurements. The Fraunhofer Institute for High-Speed Dynamics, Ernst-Mach-Institut (Fraunhofer EMI), has developed what it says is a unique high-speed x-ray system that makes dynamic processes inside large-format prismatic cells visible in real time for the first time.…

Hyperpilot and dSPACE tackle the growing challenge of software validation

Modern vehicles already contain around 100 million lines of code, according to McKinsey, with that figure projected to reach 300 million by 2030. As AI accelerates software development, validation faces a growing workload, making effective test creation and maintenance increasingly important to vehicle safety and reliability. Hyperpilot has announced a new integration that allows engineering teams…

How NHTSA’s FMVSS 135 proposal redefines brake validation

On June 26, 2026, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) published a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM) that will dismantle a 31-year-old assumption embedded in federal safety compliance: that every light vehicle on US roads has a physical brake pedal awaiting a human foot. The landmark proposal explicitly amends Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) No. 135 (Light…

V Engineering develops new hybrid battery for McLaren P1

V Engineering, McLaren’s independent engineering center, has announced that it is developing a new high-voltage, hybrid battery solution for the McLaren P1, as part of Project Continuum. The original hybrid battery cells used in the P1 were manufactured in 2010. After 16 years of service, numerous units have deteriorated to the point that they must be replaced, otherwise the car will be…
