onsemi (NASDAQ: ON) and Geely Auto Group have announced an expanded global strategic collaboration aimed at accelerating the development of next-generation electric and hybrid vehicles. This partnership deepens the system-level integration of onsemi's advanced silicon carbide (SiC) technologies across Geely's vehicle platforms, driving faster and more efficient EV development.
EliteSiC Integrated into Geely's SEA-S Based SEP System
As part of the announcement, Geely is showcasing its SEA-S based Super Electric Power (SEP) System, which incorporates onsemi's EliteSiC power technologies at the heart of its electric drive systems. These next-generation vehicles are designed to take full advantage of high-voltage architectures, delivering faster acceleration, extended driving range, and significantly reduced charging times.
By enabling higher power density, onsemi's technology allows more performance to be packed into a smaller, lighter system, contributing to improved vehicle dynamics and interior space. Enhanced thermal performance helps maintain consistent output during demanding driving conditions while supporting long-term reliability. Together, these capabilities translate into a more responsive, efficient, and refined driving experience, where drivers benefit from quicker starts, smoother power delivery, and longer range with less time spent charging.
Why 900V Architectures Matter for the Future of EVs
At its core, the shift to 900V vehicle architecture is about moving electricity through the car more efficiently. By increasing voltage, automakers can deliver more power with less heat and energy loss, which translates directly into benefits drivers can feel, such as faster charging times, longer driving range, and stronger, more consistent performance. onsemi's EliteSiC solutions enable this by handling higher voltages with greater efficiency and reliability, helping bring next-generation electric vehicles closer to the speed, convenience, and driving experience consumers expect.
