QNX, a division of BlackBerry Limited, Vector and TTTech Auto announced on 7 January 2025 a multi-year, global project to collaborate, develop and commercialise a foundational software platform for vehicles that ends the arduous and costly process of software integration and allows automakers to focus on delivering innovative, consumer-facing applications that create brand loyalty, differentiation and value.
While a robust vehicle software platform is a critical enabler for the generation of next-generation vehicles, developing and maintaining it in-house is expensive and provides little value to the consumer once complete. The involvement of hundreds of software vendors in each individual vehicle ECU adds significant complexity, driving up integration and upgrade costs and often resulting in software incompatibilities, performance issues, launch challenges and production delays. Hardware-specific dependencies exacerbate the problem by creating vendor lock-in and limiting portability between different modules and programmes. And despite the best efforts of industry consortia, existing vehicle software platforms have yet to gain widespread acceptance among OEMs due to performance issues, complex configuration requirements and safety certification hurdles. The vehicle software platform being developed by QNX, Vector and TTTech Auto will provide automotive OEMs with a solid software foundation that solves these challenges and allows them to build upon it to offer the brand differentiating applications and services most in demand by their customers.
