Part D: Implementation Strategies

In this section of SDV101, we explore key strategies for implementing Software-Defined Vehicles (SDVs). We begin with the #digitalfirst approach, emphasizing the shift toward software-centric development. Next, we examine the interplay between hardware and software engineering, highlighting integration challenges and opportunities. The chapter on implementing the Shift Left details how early validation, simulation, virtualization and continuous testing can accelerate development. A strategic perspective follows, addressing big picture strategy topics. Finally, we cover essential enterprise topics like Homologation, Variant Management, and Engineering Intelligence.
