Current situation and challenges<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n The rise of new technologies, consumer preferences, and emerging mobility services are radically transforming the automotive industry. We find ourselves in an exciting era of change, driven by the pursuit of sustainable digital mobility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Urban mobility is shifting from private car use to the concept of smart cities<\/em>, where shared smart transport infrastructures for people and goods include private vehicles, bicycles, and public transit. This industry transformation requires the digital mobility value chain to capitalise on the latest innovations in software and electronics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Artificial Intelligence (AI), the Internet of Things (IoT), sensor systems, robotics, and mobility services are paving the way, albeit with formidable challenges, towards a technological shift to new business models where the entire mobility ecosystem must collaborate for the evolution of transport services and features. Coordinating different means of transport for efficient door-to-door mobility is essential, as is fostering fully automated and autonomous driving, where software implements new features, capabilities, and vehicle performance enhancements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Hardware components in vehicles are becoming more powerful and efficient, yet more challenging to manage. Concurrently, the complexity of software functions is growing exponentially, and vehicles are increasingly becoming an \u201cInternet node on wheels.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
