Hinweis der Redaktion
Implementation of the roadworthiness package, September 2020:
Safety on EU roads has significantly improved over the years and benefits from a holistic approach at EU level.
Despite efforts to improve EU road safety, progress in reducing road fatalities rates has stagnated in recent years. This is why a new approach has been adopted at EU level, based on 'vision zero' (zero fatalities by 2050) and 'safe system' (human fallibility and vulnerability are taken into account and the transport system is designed to protect people from death and serious injury).
As vehicles become more capable of automated driving, the need for over-the-air updates or upgrades to software and firmware will increase. More and more of this functionality will be realized through software, making it a key component in ensuring functional safety, security and environmental compatibility over the entire life of the vehicle.
During the recent UNECE WP.29 (GRVA) 11th Session in September/October 2021 representatives of ISO provided the strategy to created the new “ISO TS 5083 – Safety for Automated Driving Systems” for supporting regulations on automated driving.
In the same session, CITA - the world wide association of authorities and authorized members active in the field of vehicle compliance – expressed the need for a legal framework for authorities and sovereign public bodies? The main critic is that
Access only via B2B contracts with each OEM
No guarantee for original, trustworthy and unfiltered data
Limited data sets available
No E2E Encrypted data (from car to user/authority)
AUTOSAR provides all the basic capabilities for automated driving. With the results of the internal “AVOS” discussion AUTOSAR is planning to optimize the standardization and by this also mitigating the main CITA critic in the field of data and the related access. For this a collaboration with the CVII (Common Vehilce Interface Initiative) is discussed.
AUTOSAR is also striving to extend the collaboration with ASAM, CITA and IAMTS (International Alliance for Mobility Testing and Standardization) to provide the AUTOSAR partners a standard supporting global certification and periodical technical inspections according to upcoming regulations.
Always fresh (OTA) vs. Certification (ASAM, CITA, IAMTS)
This very special year has shown that when faced with major challenges, we can only achieve our goals through open exchange and joint efforts.
Our challenges in standardization are certainly not comparable.
But we can see from the proven track record of AUTOSAR that the global collaboration in standardization leads to success, even though companies compete with product implementation.

But we can see from the proven track record of AUTOSAR that the global collaboration in standardization leads to success, even though companies compete with product implementation.
Some companies, including AUTOSAR partner companies, have announced their vehicle software development strategies to address the challenges in the mobility sector. Some strategies, for example, deal with the implementation of an own OEM "Vehicle OS".
The motivations of vehicle manufacturers to introduce their own "Vehicle OS" may be manifold, but what they have in common is that the term "Vehicle OS" is initially undefined and probably includes much more than what we usually understand by an operating system. In addition to a definition of "Vehicle OS", it is therefore necessary to analyze which software components are affected, whether and where proprietary approaches can be suitable, and what is to be achieved in detail.
Quintessence #1:
Automotive OEM announce different strategies for future automotive software to meet the challenges of connectivity, autonomy, sharing and electrification, for example own “Vehicle OS”.
