Vehicle virtualization

Measured impact at a European vehicle OEM: Complementing HIL with virtual integration testing to offer a faster and more accessible alternative for regression testing. The outcome? 10x increased feedback speed for end to end integration tests, less dependency on HIL, and the ability for developers to run near-hardware realism tests involving multiple ECUs directly on their own laptops.

When requirements, test cases, and vehicle models live in the same codebase, everything changes - for engineers, for compliance, and for AI-assisted development.

Ahsan Qamar is one of the most influential voices in software-defined vehicles today. Named to Automotive IQ's Top 20 Voices in Automotive 2025, he shares his perspective on three key challenges in software-defined development — spanning UAVs, aerospace, vehicles, and robotics — why they matter, and how the industry can address them.

RemotiveTalk #2: Shift left testing is on every automotive software team's roadmap, but most organizations are still finding bugs too late and at too high a cost. Emil Dautovic sits down with Michael Fait (Thoughtworks) and RemotiveLabs CEO Per Sigurdson to discuss what the automotive test pyramid looks like in practice, what genuinely gets in the way, and where to start.

- and what it will take to change. A conversation with Johan Thelin, open source strategist and systems architect with two decades at the intersection of automotive and software.
