MPMC will host a live tour of the SEMA Detroit Garage along with their general membership meeting. Participants will learn about current activities within MPMC and be able to participate in a live, guided tour of the new SEMA Garage in Detroit.

With advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) standard on most new vehicles today, the aftermarket industry must be aware of how parts and accessories may affect the safety systems. But just how much do parts manufacturers need to know, and what are manufacturers responsible for?

EVs are part of a rapidly growing segment in the performance aftermarket. To ensure efficient product development, engineers, programmers and developers must know how to accurately assess the influence that modifications have on EV performance.

Designing wheels can be challenging. What can designers do within the confines of a circle that will meet buyers’ need for fashion and functionality?

With nearly every new vehicle manufactured with Advanced Driver Assistance System (ADAS), it’s important for SEMA member companies to understand the types of tests that OEMs utilize to validate and develop their ADAS systems. Knowing how these vehicles are evaluated can help engineers and product developers plan their product development processes for new products, as well as better understand the vehicle’s performance.

Battery management systems are the key to safe EV operation, and they also affect vehicle performance and battery life. Knowing why they exist, what they do and how to use them is critical to prevent battery damage and maintain battery life when modifying an EV for increased performance.

There’s a lot to know about the difference between electric vehicle (EV) tires and tires made for traditional internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicles.

During this recording, wheel and tire companies will learn best practices and essential information for bringing aftermarket EV wheels and tires to market.

Cars have become more complex and computer-controlled; virtually every major system in new cars is connected and because vehicle safety systems are involved, OEMS often lock down access to their computer controls, limiting the aftermarket’s access to these complex systems.

Marie Pier Forget of Ingenext will discuss the exciting developments in EV powertrain tuning, pioneered by her company. She will highlight the performance gains achieved, methods used, and application range of their cutting edge product line.
