Zusammenfassung:A method of manufacturing a modular vehicle subassembly (MVS) includes assembling a propulsion system onto a vehicle frame, assembling a suspension system onto the vehicle frame, assembling a steering system and braking system onto the vehicle frame, assembling an electrical distribution system onto the vehicle frame, and integrating an onboard controller with the propulsion system, the steering system, and the braking system. The onboard controller is configured to command the propulsion system, the steering system, and the braking system such that the MVS is operable to move untethered through a top hat assembly line during assembly of a top hat on the MVS.
