Vehicle safety, security, and emissions have to be brought in line with new, rigorous standards and any failure to do so could result in lost market share and a damaged reputation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The new path for the automotive industry is being further dictated by political maneuvering. As governments respond to public outcry over <strong>climate change,<\/strong> the end of the combustion engine is on the horizon and <strong>alternative power trains<\/strong> must be invested in.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In this age of <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/thought-leadership\/2021\/10\/19\/accelerate-innovation-to-unleash-next-generation-designs\/\">accelerating innovation<\/a><\/strong> and <strong>exploding complexity,<\/strong> many carmakers are finding that their traditional development practices are no longer up to the task. Siloed documentation and sequential steps simply don\u2019t provide the necessary infrastructure to develop the <strong>multi-domain, highly integrated vehicles<\/strong> that the market is demanding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>OEMs need a new engineering approach to enable them to overcome the difficulties of <strong>maintaining profits today<\/strong> through traditional vehicle development <strong>while future-proofing their business models<\/strong> with next-generation design.
