Quantum Computing- Exploring Automotive Applications
summary
BMW Group maps more than 50+ use cases across three clusters — process optimization (production sequencing, logistics, robot paths), material science (batteries, fuel cells) and classical numerical simulation (crash, aero, fluid sims that make up ~80% of HPC) — and builds a German/European ecosystem via Q‑Tech plus university chairs and industry partners. A pilot on PVC seal robot paths uses a hybrid quantum‑inspired optimizer and yields about a 10% runtime improvement, enabling similar production ramp gains, while full native quantum hardware is seen as 5–10 years to maturity with hybrids useful now.
