Software in Automotive

Capgemini can empower you to rethink your business around software.

In today’s automotive industry, software is migrating from the periphery of vehicles to the driver’s seat. At the same time, the industry focus is shifting from products to services.

The concept of software-driven mobility is already redefining the global automotive industry. But that’s just the start of this software-defined transformation in automotive.

Increasingly, not only vehicles, but also organisational structures, processes, methods, and tools are being defined, designed, and operated by software.

Every stage of the end-to-end value chain is affected by software-defined transformation. And it’s also changing expectations – those of manufacturers, regulators, and end-customers.

Driving the Future podcast

In the ever-evolving world of automotive, the role of software is increasing rapidly. In this episode of Driving the Future, we turn to the Automotive News Europe podcast where, as part of their episode of the “Rising Stars Speak” series, Bosch’s Jurgen Mueller and our very own Kai Oliver Schaeffer discuss the increasing role of software in vehicles, from enhancing automated driving to redefining the driving experience.

Join us as we uncover how AI, data collection, and partnerships are shaping the future of the automotive industry.
