To provide affordable and accessible mobility solutions to both emerging and advanced markets the GIANTS (Green Intelligent Affordable Nano Transport Solutions) project aims to develop a completely new electric vehicle platform. The platform is based on user demands and will be demonstrated and validated in use cases in both emerging and advanced markets showcasing the practicality of GIANTS technology. Rather than focussing on the development of a typical skateboard-solution common in the automotive sector, GIANTS offers a much more flexible and mission tailored approach: It is built on a set of technology solutions, which together allow to produce light electric vehicles (L5, L6 and L7) suited for urban traffic solutions. It offers modularity, scalability, and interoperability, and features innovative charging and energy optimization solutions. The platform will include a lightweight, blind mating and portable 48 V battery, a scalable e-drivetrain, a standardized vehicle control system, and roof solar panels. A vehicle configuration tool will also be available to enable 3rd parties to design vehicles based on the platform. The success of the platform will be assessed in terms of platform usability, manufacturability, vehicle operation, user acceptability, environmental benefits, and business viability. Additionally, a concept for recycling, reuse and refurbishment will be developed. GIANTS will reduce the cost of ownership for electric vehicles and provide climate-neutral solutions for urban transport that are user-friendly, energy efficient, and can improve air quality, thus the project will increase the user acceptance and lead to EU leadership in world transport markets. Demonstration activities with prototypes are expected to raise awareness of the GIANTS technology and facilitate its uptake by major original equipment manufacturers. The potential for the GIANTS technology is 1.5 million vehicles sold annually from 2028 onwards.
