The will mean Zenuity’s software will likely end up in vehicles under the brands Geely Holdings owns including Geely, Geometry, Volvo, performance brand Polestar, Lotus and the subscription-based automaker Lynk & Co. Geely Holdings’ total group sales last year were 2.15 million vehicles, according to the company.
The supplier partnership solidifies business for Zenuity as it goes up against more established players in the industry. And it also hints at where some of Geely’s car brands are headed. Zenuity also confirmed Wednesday that it plans to provide software that will allow unsupervised driving for Volvo’s next generation of cars.
