Polestar CTO, Lutz Stiegler, makes a number of excellent points in this discussion of why China leads the way in innovation for software-defined vehicles. ECARX is proud to be a partner with Polestar, and to be a part of the creation of the new Polestar 4 SUV coupe. Like Polestar, we are a global company with an understanding of the different strengths and needs of different national and regional approaches to automotive manufacture and sales. The needs of the Chinese consumer in the infotainment space may not transfer directly to other markets, but our global engineering teams can learn, customize and apply them to deliver a great experience across all our markets. So, in the digital cockpit space we bring an understanding of the advanced SDV features found in China, and process it through our global engineering capability in Europe and the US, and our deep understanding and experience of global automotive trends. The benefits of software-defined vehicles are already very visible, in the digital cockpit space and beyond - Lutz Stiegler highlights that over-the-air updates can continue to improve the performance and efficiency of cars long after they leave the lot. ECARX, working with great partners such as Polestar, is leading the global customisation and application of cutting-edge approaches to the SDV.
