纽约 —— 通用汽车计划在人工智能和车辆软件方面加大投入，以推动未来的增长和发展，此举正值来自中国车企的海外竞争日益激烈，且美国市场环境更加严峻之际。
NEW YORK — General Motors plans to lean into artificial intelligence and vehicle software for future growth and development amid increasing competition abroad from Chinese automakers and a tougher U.S. market.
这家底特律车企周三分享了关于其旗下 OnStar 品牌将推出的一款专有 AI 智能体的新细节、第四代更高效纯电动汽车的规划，以及将车辆开发周期缩减一半的目标。
The Detroit automaker on Wednesday shared new details about a proprietary AI agent it's releasing under its OnStar brand, plans for a fourth generation of more efficient all-electric vehicles and a target to cut its vehicle development time in half.
通用汽车还重申，到 2028 年，其目标是实现高速公路“视线离路”驾驶，即“个人自主驾驶”，让驾驶员无需时刻关注路况。该公司表示，这项技术将首先搭载于凯迪拉克 Escalade IQ 纯电动车型，随后推广至其他销量更大的车型。
GM also reconfirmed that by 2028, it wants to have eyes-off highway driving, or "personal autonomy," that will let drivers take their attention off the road. The automaker said that technology would start with the Cadillac Escalade IQ EV before rolling out to other, more high-volume models.
“所有这些进展都在为我们打造未来的汽车，”首席执行官玛丽·巴拉周三在曼哈顿市中心举行的“GM Forward”发布会上表示。
"All of these developments are building us the car of the future," CEO Mary Barra said Wednesday during an event laying out the plans, called "GM Forward," in downtown Manhattan.
巴拉、首席产品官斯特林·安德森及其他高管在发布会上探讨的这些举措，旨在精简车企运营，同时提升车辆为客户提供的性能。
The initiatives, which Barra, Chief Product Officer Sterling Anderson and other executives discussed at the event, are designed to streamline the automaker's operations, while also improving the capabilities of its vehicles for customers.
“过去 12 个月里，我们改变了设计、工程和制造车辆的方式，”主持发布会并受命监督通用汽车最新技术转型的安德森表示。
"Over the last 12 months, we've evolved how we design, engineer and build our vehicles," said Anderson, who led the event and who has been tasked with overseeing GM's latest technology transformation.
通用汽车表示，目前的目标是将从概念到量产的车辆开发时间缩短至约两年，而传统周期为四至五年。不过，公司并未详细说明实现这一目标的时间表。
GM said it is now targeting a vehicle development time of roughly two years from concept to production versus a traditional four- to five-year cycle. However, the company did not detail a timeline for reaching that goal.
此次发布会正值中国车企凭借新技术和新车型的快速开发周期，在海外市场迅速扩张之际。咨询公司艾睿铂认为，中国目前推向市场新车的速度是传统车企的两倍，投资减少 40% 至 50%，并拥有 30% 的成本优势。
The event comes as Chinese automakers are growing outside of the U.S. with rapid development times of new technologies and vehicles. Consulting firm AlixPartners said it believes China is currently bringing vehicles to market twice as fast as traditional automakers, with 40% to 50% less investment and a 30% cost advantage.
通用汽车在通过空中下载技术（OTA）更新和自动驾驶能力提供技术进步方面，仍在继续追赶美国电动汽车领军企业特斯拉。
GM also continues to play catch-up to U.S. EV leader Tesla when it comes to delivering technology advancements through over-the-air updates and automated driving capabilities.
下一代车型 通用汽车周三表示，该公司对其下一代电动汽车和传统内燃机车辆有重大规划。
Next-generation vehicles GM said Wednesday it has major plans for its next generation of EVs and traditional vehicles with internal combustion engines.
公司称，这些即将推出的车型——无论类型如何——将拥有比以往系统高出40倍的算力，以及最高快50%的蜂窝网络连接速度。
The company said those coming vehicles – regardless of type — will have 40 times the computing power and up to 50% faster cellular connectivity than prior systems.
预计这种算力将助力车企实现空中下载更新、车载诊断和人工智能应用，以及自动驾驶功能等其他技术。
That computing power is expected to help the automaker with over-the-air updates, onboard diagnostics and AI, as well as other technologies such as automated driving features.
汽车的“新大脑”将于2028年率先搭载于售价13万美元的凯迪拉克凯雷德IQ电动版上，随后推广至其他车型，包括其下一代电动汽车。
The new brain of the vehicle will launch on the $130,000 Cadillac Escalade IQ EV in 2028 before rolling out to other models, including its next generation of EVs.
通用汽车表示，即将推出的电动汽车预计将实现空气动力学性能提升25%、重量减轻15%，并采用更紧凑的电机和电池组。
GM said the forthcoming EVs are expected to be 25% more aerodynamic and 15% lighter and feature electric motors and battery packs that are more compact.
人工智能研发 通用汽车预计将通过在研发中应用人工智能来实现上述目标。
AI development GM expects to achieve such targets through the use of AI in research and development.
公司称，正在开发一种“车辆开发新运营模式”，该模式深度应用企业级人工智能和虚拟化技术以提高速度。
The company said it is developing a "new operating approach for vehicle development" that leans into enterprise AI and virtualization to increase speed.
公司在声明中表示：“这种并行工程模式让我们能够更快创新、持续改进，并以惊人的敏捷度将新技术推广至我们的全系车型。”
"This concurrent engineering model allows us to innovate faster, improve continuously, and scale new technologies across our lineup with incredible agility," the company said in a release.
通用汽车以其下一代车型的开发（包括一种新电池化学体系）为例，说明新技术如何重塑其车辆开发流程。
GM used the development of its next-generation vehicles, including a new battery chemistry, as an example of how the new technologies are reshaping its vehicle development.
公司称，在制造任何实体原型之前，已利用其近期宣布的锂锰富集电池化学体系（LMR），在虚拟环境中测试了30万多种电池设计。
The company said it virtually tested more than 300,000 battery designs using its recently announced lithium manganese rich battery chemistry, or LMR, before building a single physical prototype.
安德森周三表示，LMR将成为其第四代电动汽车的独家电池技术。通用汽车此前曾表示，希望从2028年起在雪佛兰Silverado和Escalade IQ等全尺寸电动汽车上使用这些电池。
Anderson said Wednesday that LMR will be the exclusive battery tech for its fourth-generation EVs. GM had previously said it wanted to use those batteries in full-size electric vehicles such as its Chevrolet Silverado and Escalade IQ beginning in 2028.
安德森表示，凭借在汽车行业超过100年的经验以及OnStar（安吉星）30年的积累，通用汽车在利用人工智能方面相较于其他汽车公司拥有独特优势。
Anderson said GM is uniquely positioned to use AI compared to other automotive companies because of its more than 100 years in the industry as well as 30 years of OnStar.
安德森说：“在人工智能时代，数据就是货币。几十年来，通用汽车的工程、制造和产品团队积累了无与伦比的海量数据，我们现在正利用这些数据构建行业领先的人工智能工具。” 车载人工智能 公司正在基于其内部的人工智能应用，进一步优化面向客户的体验。
"In the age of AI, data is currency," Anderson said. "For decades, GM's engineering, manufacturing and product teams have generated unparalleled body of data that we're now using to build industry-leading AI tools." In-vehicle AI The company is building on its internal use of AI to better shape its experiences for customers.
通用汽车周三重申，计划通过其OnStar技术品牌推出专有的车载人工智能助手。
GM on Wednesday reconfirmed that it plans to launch a proprietary in-vehicle AI assistant through its OnStar technology brand.
OnStar人工智能助手预计将在未来几个月内，通过空中下载技术（OTA）率先在2027款凯迪拉克Lyriq（锐歌）电动汽车上推出，随后扩展至其他车型。
The OnStar AI assistant is expected to launch in the coming months on the 2027 Cadillac Lyriq EV through an over-the-air update before expanding to other models.
通用汽车目前使用谷歌的Gemini为其车载人工智能助手提供支持。公司今年早些时候曾告诉CNBC，通用汽车自主开发的人工智能将与车辆实现更深度的集成。
GM currently uses Google's Gemini for its in-vehicle AI assistant. The company told CNBC earlier this year that the GM-developed AI will be more integrated with the vehicle.
OnStar人工智能将通过订阅制提供，其目标是帮助客户在车内保持高效，特别是当车辆具备无需驾驶员或乘客监控系统的自动驾驶能力时。
The goal for OnStar AI, which will be available through a subscription, is to help customers be productive while in the car, especially if the vehicle has self-driving capabilities that don't require the driver or passengers to monitor the system.
通用汽车周三还重申了其计划于2028年推出“眼离路”高速公路驾驶功能。该车企一年前曾表示希望推出该技术。距离巴拉表示预计公司将在本十年内提供个人自动驾驶汽车，已过去五年。
GM on Wednesday also reiterated its plans to launch eyes-off highway driving in 2028. The automaker said a year ago that it wanted to launch that technology. It's been five years since Barra said she expected the automaker to offer personal autonomous vehicles this decade.
安德森说：“我们的愿景是，最终每一辆汽车都能自动驾驶其乘客前往任何地方，我们正在全栈自动驾驶领域进行投资，以使这一愿景成为现实。”
"Our vision is that eventually every vehicle should drive itself or its occupants anywhere, and we're investing across the self-driving stack to make that real," Anderson said.
