Intel shared plans for new car chips at the Shanghai Auto Show. Their Frisco Lake chips feature Panther Lake designs that will reach cars around 2026. These processors handle AI tasks ten times faster than older models, with better power use. They come with next-generation Xe3 graphics that replace current Battlemage systems. The chips support twelve camera inputs for advanced driver features.
Intel has bigger plans scheduled after Frisco Lake. Their Grizzly Lake platform brings Monument Peak chips with Nova Lake technology. These future processors might use up to thirty-two efficiency cores for car systems. The graphics can process seven trillion calculations per second through six display connections. They meet the automotive safety standards needed for modern vehicles. Intel aims these chips at electric car makers looking for powerful computing.
Both chip families show Intel's desire to grow its auto business. The current generation uses Raptor Lake designs that consume between twelve and forty-five watts of power. New versions will range from twenty to sixty-five watts, depending on performance needs. Kernel software updates confirm the Frisco Lake connection to Panther Lake technology. Intel appears to stick with its original timeline despite recent company changes.
