Automotive Industry Increases Productivity with Increasingly Complex Software Development

Read the latest data on automated vehicles, advanced driver assistance systems, and where consumers’ needs are today.

The number of self-driving cars equipped with advanced driver assistance systems is expected to increase rapidly after 2030, with a market size of over US$100 billion. At the same time, automobiles that have become “computers on wheels” are expected to become the norm in the near future, with 52% of once highly resistant consumers saying they will embrace self-driving cars within the next few years.

As the paradigm shift in the vehicle development process from hardware-centric to software-centric continues, the automotive industry has not been able to keep pace with the increasing speed of software development complexity at all in terms of productivity improvement. This report highlights the challenges the automotive industry and manufacturers face in vehicle development, presenting data on self-driving cars and advanced driver assistance systems. The gap between the speed of software development complexity and the speed of development productivity improvement is widening, and this presents an opportunity to gain an edge over competitors.

The implementation of integrated E/E system development tools has become a must-have solution to achieve this goal.
