In 2019, Swiss Re launched the ADAS Risk Score with the aim of creating a vehicle-specific insurance rating, taking driver assistance systems into account.

Through the partnership, Veoneer will enhance its ADAS technology using Swiss Re’s empirical knowledge of real-world performance of ADAS systems based on insurance-relevant insights and approach to risk modelling. A better understanding of how a vehicle is driven in contexts, such as differing road or weather conditions, will reveal the opportunities and limitations of current systems in more detail.

At the same time, Swiss Re will benefit from Veoneer’s experience in ADAS hardware and software technologies. This information will feed into the Swiss Re ADAS Risk Score. Consequently, insurers will gain from being able to assess the latest car safety technologies for insurance purposes.

“With extended knowledge about the real-world performance of various ADAS technologies in different parts of the world, we can develop systems used by vehicle manufacturers globally that support drivers in an even better way,” said Veoneer CTO, Steven Jenkins.
