The Unsung Hero of Mobility:
Smart Vehicle ArchitectureTM
By 2020, vehicles will exchange 100,000 pieces of data in a literal blink of an eye. How will they handle all this data and power distribution? By being built on a radically optimized architecture. Enter Aptiv.
Ready for the Future: Smart Vehicle Architecture
Smart Vehicle Architecture incorporates the full suite of our technology and brings it together through our systems integration expertise. We can integrate whole systems through smart vehicle architectures, which enable all the electrification, active safety, automation, and connectivity features, driving this new mobility.

The Brains behind the Organization
As new vehicles become smarter and advanced driver assist systems (ADAS) evolve from semi-autonomous to fully autonomous, cars will become rolling supercomputers.
Aptiv is building the architecture that allows these data-devouring computers, transceivers, and sensor technologies to send, receive, and process billions of bits of data in order to see and make decisions to move vehicles and their human passengers safely and reliably, all without a human driver.

Self-Driving Future
The future is all about a software-defined vehicle. Like the smart phone, the vehicle is becoming a holistic computing platform, capable of executing complex software programs. Aptiv is a world leader in automotive software. You would probably never guess that we ship 40 billion lines of code per day – growing to over 200 billion in the next few years.

Rethinking car's nervous system
Updating a car‘s wiring is a lot like performing neural surgery. Every wire is part of an intricate and increasingly complicated network. How intricate? Today's premium cars have 2.5 miles of wiring and more than 100 ECUs. And both those numbers are growing larger and more complex every day.

Evolution of electronics
No More Room: The evolution of electronics brings the auto industry to a turning point.
Think about it... Everybody notices the latest safety features and how the vehicle’s overall aesthetic changes over time. But do they see the dramatic shift in the electrical and electronics system that makes it all work?
The architecture revolution has begun.

Portable EVSE cordset
250 sequential drops + 1 Meter = automotive grade
How Aptiv’s portable EVSE cordset handles the tough stuff
As most electric vehicle (EV) or hybrid drivers are aware, EVs and plug-in hybrid EVs receive energy from Electric Vehicle Supply Equipment (EVSE), or more commonly known as the EV cordset.
X
Connected Services
As the vehicle becomes the largest source of data worldwide, it is critical that the appropriate data be analyzed in real-time in order to enable autonomous vehicles, mobility on demand services and the emerging data marketplace. By being connected, vehicles are beginning to interact with our world in a way that will transform our lives.

Automotive transformation
The automotive industry is undergoing a massive transformation. Smart mobility is bringing in a flexible, multi-modal transport system that includes autonomous fleets and vehicle electrification. What does the future of mobility look like? Read our blog series on Smart Mobility Part 1, Part 2 and Part 3

Cybersecurity
Your car is a super computer – the largest and most expensive computer you will ever own. Premium vehicles today have more lines of code than a F-35 jet or the code required to run the Android Operating System. Cyber-attack on a
vehicle (or fleet of vehicles) connected to the world could be disastrous.
Thinking up these worst case scenarios – and how to prevent them – are all in a day's work for Aptiv's cybersecurity team.
