In future, Volkswagen Group brands Audi, Bentley, Lamborghini and Porsche will use Mobileye technology to introduce new premium-oriented driving functions to their model portfolios across powertrain types.
In addition, Mobileye is set to supply further technology components for automated driving to Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles.
Oliver Blume, CEO of the Volkswagen Group and Porsche AG said: “Our goal is to offer our customers throughout the world outstanding products with cutting-edge technology. In Mobileye, we have an additional first-class partner to shape this automotive future together.”
Prof. Amnon Shashua, President and CEO of Mobileye said: ““We are proud to work closely with Volkswagen Group to make the future of driving safer, more automated and more rewarding.”
In the long term, the Volkswagen Group says it aims to rely on its own complete in-house system: partnerships with Bosch and Qualcomm, as well as with Horizon Robotics in China, will be continued with a focus.
All driver assistance systems are to be based on the software architectures developed by Volkswagen’s Cariad company.
