"Auto 2.0: The Supply Chain Revolution in the Software-Defined Era" Published, Spotlighting the Transformation of Automotive Intelligence

The book *"Automotive 2.0: The Supply Chain Revolution in the Era of Software-Defined Vehicles"* has been officially published and released. Spearheaded by Zhou Xiaoying, CEO and Chief Editor of Gasgoo Automotive, the book compiles in-depth interviews conducted with leading international and domestic experts and executives from the fields of automotive semiconductors, embedded software, and artificial intelligence. It is the second volume in the *"New Automotive · New Tech"* series. Part Three of the book, titled *"Intelligent Central Platform: The Disruptors Defining the Automotive Brain,"* focuses on the core technological variable of the software-defined vehicle era—the intelligent central platform—and features exclusive interviews with Cao Yanfei, Senior Vice President of Infineon Technologies; Dr. Matthias Traub, CEO of Vector; and Wang Xiaogang, CEO of SenseAuto (SenseTime’s autonomous driving division). The book explores key industry trends, including the evolution of automotive electronic/electrical (E/E) architectures from distributed systems toward domain control and centralized computing platforms, the upgrade of embedded systems to high-performance computing, and the shift from traditional algorithms to Artificial General Intelligence (AGI). It also examines how localized chip development, software platform scalability, and the integration of large AI models into vehicles will shape the competitiveness of next-generation automobiles. Infineon has implemented a China strategy centered on “local product definition, local manufacturing, and a local ecosystem” for its automotive semiconductor business. Vector offers a comprehensive software platform spanning from embedded systems to high-performance computing. Meanwhile, SenseAuto is advancing vehicles toward super-intelligent agents through its integrated AGI architecture encompassing “driving – cabin – cloud.”
