The impact of increased electrification on the Automotive Industry – Model Based Matters ep. 8
The automotive industry is undergoing a lot of changes necessitated by a shift in customers’ preferences as well the need to be eco-friendly. New customers are more interested in the experience they get than how fast the car goes from 0 to 60 or the type of suspensions installed. All this has introduced a lot of complexity because OEMs now have to essentially build computers on wheels.
Today, the hosts are Nicholas Finberg of Siemens Global Marketing, and Tim Kinman, Vice President of Trending Solutions and Global Program Lead for Systems Digitalization at Siemens Digital Industries Software. They are joined by three guests from Siemens: Nand Kochhar, Matt Bromley, and Doug Burcicki.
