ZEEKR has once again turned heads with its flagship SUV, which it plans to launch in the third quarter of 2025. According to a statement from Geely Automobile Group, there is a very special detail that sets this SUV apart from the others: It is the first SUV with the NVIDIA Thor chip. So what does this mean?
ZEEKR’s flagship, the first electric SUV with NVIDIA Thor chip on the road in 2025
NVIDIA’s DRIVE Thor platform will be the talk of the automotive industry. The Thor chip has a massive processing power of 2,000 TFLOPS, which is almost a full order of magnitude higher than previous generations. It is said that this high power of Thor will transform the vehicle from just a transportation vehicle into a smart mobile living space.
The new SUV combines everything from in-car entertainment systems to autonomous driving features on a single chip. ZEEKR announced that thanks to Thor’s flexible structure, the new SUV will offer a unique experience for drivers and passengers. From entertainment to safety, everything will be controlled by Thor’s powerful artificial intelligence.
The first claims for an ARM graphics card have emerged. The company is rumored to be designing new discrete GPUs using the ARM architecture.
As An Conghui, CEO of ZEEKR, stated, this SUV model will be an exemplary one in the automotive industry. The NVIDIA Thor will not only strengthen the vehicle’s autonomous driving capabilities, but will also integrate with AI (artificial intelligence) based systems, making it the mobile living space of the future.
With these superior capabilities offered by the NVIDIA Thor chip, ZEEKR aims to make autonomous driving more reliable and accessible. Moreover, thanks to its customizable structure, it will respond to different driver needs and passenger expectations.
