E-Car News recently learned from relevant channels that Toyota Motor plans to develop its own automotive software platform Arene by 2025, covering all functions from basic functions to automatic driving. Through the Arene operating system, Toyota will compete with competitors such as Tesla, Volkswagen and tech companies to set standards for the software that drives the next generation of cars.
Toyota plans to move Arene in 2025, followed by subsidiaries such as Subaru, where Arene will control basic components such as steering wheels, brakes and accelerators, and manage safety systems as well as location and traffic information. In addition, the system is highly compatible, and all vehicles using the operating system can use the sharing function while upgrading through OTA online updates.
In addition, Toyota is considering authorizing the sharing of the system, in addition to enabling companies outside the industry to develop applications for autonomous driving and other functions, and increasing the application share of the system, it also hopes to charge a fee through this, in addition to sharing the R&D costs, and at the same time achieve commercial profitability.
