Summary
OEMs (automakers and suppliers) are continuing to explore mechanisms and content to "continuously provide value to customers", which is an important key phrase for SDVs (Software Defined Vehicles). Providing value through software is also a battle against the challenge of increasing software development workload, and coupled with the rapid advances in generative AI, interest in development environments is growing.
This report is on the SDV presentation by Woven by Toyota at the Automotive World 2026 (Spring): Advanced Automotive Technologies Exhibition (sponsored by RX Japan Ltd.), held at the Tokyo Big Sight from January 21 to 23, 2026.
Now that Woven by Toyota has announced "Arene," this report describes how this development relates to mechanisms that improve customer and mobility experiences.
As the concept of SDV becomes a common understanding in the industry, existing OEMs are facing major challenges. We will present questions and solutions to understand the challenges and show how "Arene" can support the "SDV transformation" that OEMs are facing.
