As electric vehicles become increasingly sophisticated, manufacturers require new tools to manage growing complexity in electrical architectures, battery systems, and vehicle integration. This is where SmartCable’s preDesign software comes into play.
For this innovative solution, SmartCable received the eMove360° Award for Electric & Autonomous Mobility 2025 in the category Battery & Powertrain.
preDesign enables engineers to create, analyze, and validate electrical vehicle architectures at a very early development stage. Components such as batteries, voltage converters, and electrical loads can be modeled together with their connections and automatically checked against engineering rules and knowledge databases.
A key feature is the use of generative design. The software automatically calculates cable lengths, conductor cross-sections, connectors, protection concepts, and even cooling systems, reducing manual engineering effort and accelerating development processes.
The platform also provides valuable insights into package space requirements, manufacturing costs, modularization strategies, and technical feasibility. Integrated simulation interfaces allow engineers to verify current and voltage limits long before physical prototypes are built.
Because its knowledge databases can be continuously updated, preDesign remains adaptable to new technologies and evolving requirements in the mobility industry.
By combining architecture design, simulation, validation, and digital engineering workflows in a single platform, SmartCable provides a powerful foundation for the next generation of electric vehicle development.
SmartCable demonstrates that groundbreaking innovations are not limited to vehicles themselves. Software solutions and engineering tools are equally important for advancing the future of mobility.
