Can carmakers catch up with Tesla and pull off the shift to software?

work, you are not quite ready to go home. Perhaps you fancy catching a film. You could head to the cinema. Instead, you retreat into your car. A few taps on the touchscreen dashboard and the vehicle turns into a multimedia cocoon. Light trickles down the interior surfaces like a waterfall. Speakers ooze surround sound. Augmented-reality glasses make a screen appear in front of your eyes. company, laid out as the future of the car at its European coming-out party last month in Berlin.

In recent years this setup has started to collapse under its own complexity. As more software was added, it became harder to make all the pieces work together, explains Andreas Boes ofev This is second nature to newcomers such as Tesla—which was conceived as a software company that happened to make cars and is now the world’s most valuable carmaker—as well as Nio. For the incumbents, it requires radical reinvention. Established car companies are furiously recruiting chief software officers , developing their owns and holding “software days” to present digital strategy to investors.

No.

People of ‌Mahabad⁩, a city in Iran are under IRGC’s attack with heavy artillery. They are shooting at residential houses of innocent weaponless people. They have cut off electricity and water. Tonight a mass murder could happen. Be their voice! Mahabad MahsaAmini

No.

Acabei de rever! Grande filme, com um impecável Nicholson.

Not when the battery burns the software and car to the ground?

Impossible is nothing. That's why I placed my bets on Toyota and Apple. (Yes, 'Apple Car' will come to life)

Not sure it’s a race, one company seems be a light years ahead of everyone else, and it’s not nio ha

Carmakers like Mercedes or BMW or Audi…did they start business yesterday

Catching up to a product that crashes?

😡😡😡

There are suddenly a lot of experienced software engineers running wild. Automakers had better snap them up.

We'll see how how much shorter the lifespan of electronic-everything mobility is compared to the mechanical-everything mobility of the past. My money is on the mechanical-everythings.

How about reinventing something more basic?... how to prevent the theft of a car's catalytic converter.

Safety features can't keep up to mitigate the rise in infotainment!!! Distracted driving, and we seem to encourage it.

Took them long enough.

Let's hope not.

No.

Good luck
