Click here to the Audio Link   欢迎收看 AUTO INSIDER 第七期。Bill Russo 与 ECARX 的 Peter Cirino 展开对话,共同探讨当前汽车产业最具影响力的问题之一:谁真正拥有软件定义汽车(Software-Defined Vehicle)的未来? 随着软件、人工智能(AI)、中央计算和数字生态系统不断重塑汽车,汽车产业的竞争优势正在从传统硬件逐渐转向软件与智能能力。汽车正在从一个相对固定的硬件产品,演变为一个持续进化的数字化平台。软件越来越深刻地决定着用户体验,赋予车辆新的功能,并影响一辆汽车整个生命周期中的价值创造方式。 从“造汽车”到“构建智能平台”,ECARX 正处于这一产业变革的核心位置。在本期节目中,Peter Cirino 分享了智能座舱、中央计算、OTA(空中升级)以及 AI 如何改变汽车的电子电气架构,并进一步改变整车厂、供应商、半导体企业以及科技公司的角色与边界。今天的挑战已经不再只是如何制造更好的零部件。真正的竞争正在转向:如何将硬件、软件、计算能力与数字生态系统整合为一个无缝的用户体验。 Bill 与 Peter 还深入讨论了中国为何正在成为软件定义汽车的重要创新引擎。快速的产品迭代速度、高度竞争的数字生态以及消费者对智能化功能的快速接受,正在推动中国汽车产业以前所未有的速度进行创新。而这种发展速度也正在影响全球汽车产业。对于传统汽车企业而言,问题已经不仅是如何跟上技术变化,而是如何重新思考自身在智能汽车价值链中的角色,并在智能化成为核心差异化来源的时代保持竞争力。 🔍 本期主要探讨:  软件定义汽车最终归谁所有? 为什么软件正成为汽车行业的主要差异化来源? 中央计算和新的电子电气架构如何改变车辆设计方式? AI 将如何重塑车内体验?AI 的真正价值究竟在哪里? 为什么中国会成为智能汽车如此重要的创新引擎? 整车厂、供应商、半导体公司和技术公司的角色如何被重新定义? 数字生态系统的崛起将如何改变传统汽车产业价值链? 面对中国快速的产品开发周期,全球企业如何在保持全球规模化能力的同时跟上创新速度? 展望未来,哪些能力将决定谁能够掌控下一代汽车中的“智能”,以及由此产生的价值? 收看本期《车圈局内人》,与 Bill Russo 和 Peter Cirino 一起,看懂软件定义汽车时代的竞争新规则。 立即点赞并订阅AUTO INSIDER,获取最新更新资讯!🎬 视频语言英语原声+中文字幕|全球智慧零时差捕获 👉 与全球出行领袖同行!订阅频道+关注全媒体矩阵,点赞❤️助力产业创新   YouTube:  ⁨@AutomobilityLtd⁩ YouKu: https://i.youku.com/i/UMjgzNzU5MjQ4?spm=a2h1n.8251843.0.0 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/0DwiS3PYbHPeA6woL46sxb Apple Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/auto-insider/id1807239946 Bill Russo's LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/williamrusso/ Automobility's LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/11278755 Automobility...
