Engineering at its best.
- Vehicle Architecture Design
- Integration (Vehicle. System. Software.)
- Software Maintenance (Life Cycle Management)
- Cloud Architecture
Integration, partnering and collaboration are one of the key factors of the Software-defined Vehicle, as all components must harmonize perfectly with each other. We have the right know-how, teams, partners and tools for the perfect integration of all components.
Vehicle Architecture Design
A modern vehicle architecture with the corresponding powerful components is an enabler for separation of software and hardware development cycles. The cross-domain server/zone architecture optimizes the vehicle system, enabling:
- Smart sensors and actuators
- Smart power distribution
- Reduction of wiring harness

Integration (Vehicle. System. Software.)
Continuous Development, Testing & Implementation. We have many years of experience in the integration of complex systems. SDV is based on the concept that vehicles are increasingly controlled by software and the integration of the software must be seamless and efficient.
Continuous Development/Validation/Testing
Continuous development in the automotive industry is a crucial strategy for staying competitive and meeting evolving consumer demands. This approach involves ongoing refinement of vehicle design, performance, safety, and sustainability features through frequent updates and enhancements.
Testing and validation of vehicles are crucial steps in development to ensure that they meet high quality and safety standards. Our tools and workbenches cover the entire testing and validation process for SDV.
Continuous innovation and development of our solutions enable us to fully support our customers in developing complex vehicle systems and ensuring their quality and safety.
Software Maintenance
Software-defined Vehicle (SDV) life cycle management is a key aspect in the development and maintenance of software-based vehicles. SDV refers to the ability to improve and adapt vehicle functions and systems through software updates and upgrades.
With a comprehensive life cycle management solution for SDV, vehicle manufacturers and operators can benefit from the following:
- Flexibility and scalability
- Increased efficiency
- Cost reduction
- Improved safety and reliability
- Customer loyalty and customer experience
- Future-proofing
