Unveiling the vehicle, General Motors vice-president – Global Propulsion Systems Dan Nicholson said GMTC-I’s world-class capability makes it an important part of GM’s global engineering operations. Engineering is a global function for General Motors and the India design centre is an integral part of it. GMTC-I houses a design studio and an engineering centre. The India centre, which contributes to a significant percentage of the GM global programmes, is focused on global programmes including design, analysis and development of vehicles and propulsion systems.  “The engineering capability we have at GMTC-I in Bengaluru, is playing a significant role in GM delivering its commitment to create a world with zero crashes, zero emissions and zero congestion,” said Nicholson. ”

Nicholson said as a part of GM’s global engineering operations, GMTC-I offers India’s leading designers and engineers the opportunity to work on cutting-edge global technology projects, and the potential for global careers. Brian McMurray, GMTC-I VP-engineering and operations, said the intellectual horsepower of GM’s designers and engineers in India is further demonstrated in the team’s 71 technical papers accepted by FISITA covering various areas.
