Competing with Volkswagen and Daimler? Toyota may launch a software platform in 2025

Driven by the rapid development of technology, automotive software has played an irreplaceable role in cars, from managing engines and batteries to supporting functions such as autonomous driving, entertainment and navigation.

On January 4, Japanese automaker Toyota Motor Corporation reportedly had a new plan for automotive software, with the goal of launching its own operating system by 2025. The operating system is called Arene, and thanks to the system, cars will be able to handle advanced operations such as autonomous driving.

It is reported that the Arene software platform developed by Toyota will compete with other companies such as Volkswagen and Daimler. At present, Volkswagen is developing its own "VW. OS" operating system software, and Daimler also plans to launch its own operating system software on its cars by 2024.

In addition, Toyota aims to install this operating system on its own cars by 2025, and plans to supply the system to subsidiaries such as Subaru in the future. In addition to subsidiaries such as Subaru, Toyota is also considering making Arene accessible to other electric or driverless car makers and companies.

It is worth mentioning that in the context of vehicle electrification transformation, Toyota previously said that by 2035, its carbon dioxide emissions in Western Europe will be reduced by 100%, achieving zero emissions and officially eliminating fuel vehicles.
