Ferrari Advances Generative AI for Customer Personalization and Production Efficiency
Ferrari built a car configurator on AWS using LLMs in Amazon Bedrock and Amazon Personalize, letting customers personalize their vehicle across millions of possible configurations with 3D visualization, which increased sales leads and cut configuration times by 20%. Ferrari also fine-tuned Amazon Titan, Claude 3 and Llama models in Bedrock (combined with Amazon SageMaker JumpStart) on its own documentation to power an after-sales generative AI chatbot that classifies and summarizes customer care tickets, and uses Amazon Lookout for Vision to automate quality inspection and defect detection on the assembly line. Generative AI is also used to run vehicle design simulations and text-to-image prototyping to reduce reliance on physical prototypes.
Overview
Ferrari built a car configurator on AWS using LLMs in Amazon Bedrock and Amazon Personalize, letting customers personalize their vehicle across millions of possible configurations with 3D visualization, which increased sales leads and cut configuration times by 20%. Ferrari also fine-tuned Amazon Titan, Claude 3 and Llama models in Bedrock (combined with Amazon SageMaker JumpStart) on its own documentation to power an after-sales generative AI chatbot that classifies and summarizes customer care tickets, and uses Amazon Lookout for Vision to automate quality inspection and defect detection on the assembly line. Generative AI is also used to run vehicle design simulations and text-to-image prototyping to reduce reliance on physical prototypes.
The challenge
Ferrari sought to continue delivering the best possible experiences to customers and dealers while improving their connection with the brand, and to free its teams from managing the infrastructure for its applications.
The solution
Ferrari built a car configurator on AWS, using large language models in Amazon Bedrock together with Amazon Personalize to let customers personalize their vehicle across millions of possible configurations with 3D imagery that can be rotated and zoomed. Ferrari also fine-tuned LLMs in Amazon Bedrock, including Amazon Titan, Claude 3, and Llama, on its own documentation, combined with Amazon SageMaker JumpStart, to train a generative AI after-sales chatbot that classifies and summarizes customer care tickets and answers commonly asked questions. Ferrari uses Amazon Lookout for Vision to spot product defects with computer vision to automate quality inspections and detect missing or defective parts on the assembly line before a vehicle goes to testing. Ferrari also uses generative AI, including text-to-image capabilities, to run vehicle design simulations and prototyping.
Reported business value
Since rolling out the car configurator, Ferrari has increased its sales leads and reduced configuration times by 20 percent. The company has reduced the total cost of ownership for its infrastructure from 70 percent to 40 percent, and can run simulations in its product lifecycle management software 60 percent faster than before.

Volvo Trucks uses proprietary AI models to power adaptive maintenance in its Blue Service Contract
Volvo Trucks North America upgraded its Blue Service Contract to offer optimized service stops based on fuel consumption, idle time and oil samples, powered by the OEM's proprietary AI models, enabling fewer stops for 2023 model year and newer trucks and reducing operating costs for customers.
BMW Group builds plant-scale digital twins with NVIDIA Omniverse, cutting vehicle aerodynamics simulation time 30x
BMW Group is building digital twins of its production facilities using NVIDIA Omniverse libraries, letting global production planning teams collaborate in real time, optimize the layout and design of complex manufacturing systems, and develop autonomous robot and vision AI applications prior to real-world deployment. Working with Siemens, BMW is also accelerating simulation of vehicle aerodynamics: tests on NVIDIA Grace Blackwell and CUDA-X-accelerated Simcenter Star-CCM+ software showed a 30x speedup for transient aerodynamics simulations of entire vehicle geometries, while reducing energy consumption and costs.
BERESA Group's sovereign AI voicebot on STACKIT reaches a 30% appointment booking rate against a 25% benchmark
BERESA Group's digital arm auto dm worked with STACKIT and Schwarz Digits to build an AI voicebot for after-sales appointment booking (wheel and tire changes) that went live in March 2025 and accesses BERESA's knowledge database. The source reports a 30% appointment booking rate against a 25% benchmark, upselling rates of 35-95% on add-on products, and 24/7 availability.
European automotive marketer uses AI to target engaged customers and lifts open rates 50%
A regional automotive marketing organization covering more than 30 European countries used Oracle Unity and Oracle Marketing with AI to identify which email messages and digital touchpoints are likely to engage customers based on profile and behavior. The organization runs more than 120 always-on automated campaigns, seeing a 50% increase in email open rates, a 230% increase in lead submissions, and a 5% increase in order uptake.
