Driving the shift to software-defined vehicles, GlobalLogic and Elektrobit expand their partnership to deliver scalable, secure platforms that help automakers speed development worldwide.
GlobalLogic and Elektrobit have announced an expansion of their long-standing partnership to push the development and global rollout of advanced software-defined vehicles (SDVs). The move is aimed at helping automakers bring next-generation, software-led vehicle platforms to market faster and at scale.
The two companies said the strengthened alliance will focus on high-performance computing, SDV platforms and global market enablement.
It builds on a collaboration spanning more than 15 years and covering core automotive software domains. GlobalLogic will deepen its role beyond traditional engineering services. The company will contribute expertise in safety-critical software, functional safety and cybersecurity to support compliance with key automotive standards, including ASPICE 4.0 and ISO 21434. These capabilities are increasingly critical as vehicles shift towards centralised computing and software-driven architectures.
Elektrobit, known for its automotive software platforms, will continue to anchor the collaboration with its portfolio across Adaptive and Classic AUTOSAR middleware, in-vehicle infotainment systems and connectivity solutions.
Together, the companies aim to simplify complex vehicle software development while improving speed, flexibility and cost efficiency for global original equipment manufacturers.
Ramki Krishna, Group Vice President and General Manager for Automotive and Industrial Business at GlobalLogic, said the expanded collaboration reinforces a shared commitment to advancing SDVs.
“With GlobalLogic’s capabilities in safety-critical software, HPC, digital cockpit innovation, and SDV tooling, we are helping OEMs accelerate feature development and deliver production-grade vehicle programs worldwide,” he said.
Jaganathan Rajagopalan, Chief Product Officer at Elektrobit, said software-defined vehicles are no longer a future concept.
He commented, “It supports our dedication to scale and provides world-class engineering expertise, enabling us to lead in efficiency and innovation.”
The partnership reflects a broader industry shift towards software-led mobility. As vehicles increasingly rely on updatable, centralised software platforms, OEMs are seeking technology partners that can deliver robust, secure and scalable solutions across markets.
GlobalLogic, part of the Hitachi Group, provides digital engineering services across industries. Elektrobit, a subsidiary of AUMOVIO, supplies automotive software that powers hundreds of millions of vehicles globally.
