Mullen Announces Strategic Partnership with DSA Systems for Over the Air (OTA) Technology and Vehicle System Diagnostics
December 29 2021 - 8:30AM
via InvestorWire -- Mullen Automotive, Inc. (NASDAQ: MULN)
(“Mullen” or the “Company”), an emerging electric vehicle (“EV”)
manufacturer, announces today a strategic partnership with DSA
Systems (“DSA”), a leading international provider of vehicle system
diagnostics and remote OTA technology. Mullen and DSA will be
collaborating on the upcoming Mullen FIVE EV Crossover
Program.
DSA has been a global leader for more than 40 years in equipping
automotive OEMs with vehicle diagnostics and connectivity,
providing monitoring and supporting technologies throughout the
entire life cycle of vehicles. Mullen and DSA will work together on
developing proprietary vehicle diagnostics and remote OTA
capabilities for the Mullen FIVE EV Crossover. It is
envisioned that all of Mullen's future vehicle programs will also
utilize DSA’s underpinning diagnostic technology.
“We intend for the Mullen FIVE to have the best 5G OTA
technology from DSA, allowing us to remotely diagnose and
proactively fix potential vehicle issues,” said David Michery, CEO
and chairman of Mullen Automotive. “OTA updates and fixes
promote a greater service experience for customers. Ideally, we
will be able to proactively identify a potential vehicle issue,
remotely update and fix the issue, all while the vehicle is parked
at the customer’s home and not a dealership waiting for
service.”
“DSA is very excited to collaborate with Mullen on advanced
diagnostics and connectivity technology,” said Mike Wells,
president and CEO of DSA Systems. “DSA has been building an
expansive portfolio of products and solutions in the area of
vehicle life cycle management for many years. Vehicles are
increasingly built as software-defined products with many advanced
features. As a result, OEMs can continually develop their products
and release new features over time, much like a smartphone. Whilst
this is undoubtedly a huge benefit to the vehicle owner, it creates
huge challenges for the vehicle manufacturer to manage and maintain
all this software across multiple platforms, model years and ECUs.
With DSA’s suite of tools, Mullen will be able to manage, monitor,
diagnose and update their fleet of vehicles with confidence and
ease for years to come.”
The Mullen FIVE is built on an EV crossover skateboard platform
that offers multiple powertrain configurations and trim levels in a
svelte design that is “Strikingly DifferentTM” and exciting to
experience in person. Learn more about the Mullen FIVE at
