The Rise of Software-Defined Vehicles
The concept of software-defined vehicles is revolutionising the automotive industry. Unlike traditional vehicles that rely heavily on mechanical and hardware components, a software-defined vehicle’s controls are managed by software. This shift offers several benefits:
- Cost Reduction: Manufacturing costs are reduced as the complexity of physical components decreases.
- Upgradability: Vehicles can receive over-the-air updates, like smartphones, keeping them current and relevant.
- Enhanced User Experience: Software allows for a highly customisable user experience, tailored to specific brands.
- Safety and Assistance: Integration of various functions enhances driving assistance and safety.
To uncover software-defined benefits, car manufacturers and tier-one suppliers are swiftly building up their in-house expertise in software and associated fields, such as security, in order to prevent cyber-attacks even as the exposed area increases.
