Volvo Cars has achieved the highest possible ranking on carmakers’ software defined capabilities by S&P Global Mobility. It is the only legacy carmaker globally to reach Level 5 SDV (software-defined vehicle) capability.
The
recognition highlights Volvo Cars’ ability to improve nearly every function of
the car throughout its lifecycle and offer better value to customers, through
software. For example, it can use over-the-air updates (OTA) to add safety
features, unlock faster charging speeds, increase driving range and enhance
user experience.
“Years
of focused engineering efforts and investments have given Volvo software
capabilities that only a select few in the industry have achieved,” said Håkan Samuelsson, CEO of Volvo
Cars. “This has enabled us to deliver a step change in customer
experiences and development speed.”
Software-defined
vehicles hold the transformational power to continuously improve Volvo cars on
the roads and further raise the bar for safety. Following its technological
transformation – the biggest in the company’s nearly 100-year history – Volvo
Cars can now quickly turn real-world data into intelligence to train future
safety and assistance systems.
Volvo Cars’
in‑house‑developed core system, HuginCore™, features electrical architecture, a
core computer, zone controllers and software. Sitting at the heart of the
company’s three software‑defined cars – the EX90, ES90 and EX60 – it enables
better customer experiences, faster innovation and scalable improvements across
the entire car lineup.
S&P Global
Mobility is a
leading source of automotive intelligence, delivering comprehensive data and
expert insights that help companies make smarter, lower-risk decisions.
