Autonomous driving is a hotly debated topic in the automotive industry that will fundamentally change the future of mobility. With the advance of self-driving vehicles, however, the question also arises as to how tuning and individualization will behave in this new era of mobility. In this post, we take a brief look at the opportunities and challenges that arise in relation to the Autonomous vehicle tuning could arise.
-
design and aesthetics
The design and thus the external appearance will also play an important role in autonomous vehicles. Vehicle owners will probably continue to attach great importance to the fact that the car is visually appealing and as individual as possible. Accordingly, tuning measures in the area of the body, the chassis, the rims or the lighting will also play a major role in the future. Through targeted adjustments, autonomous vehicles can be optimized both functionally and aesthetically and adapted to the preferences of the owner.
-
interior and comfort
Since autonomous vehicles relieve the driver of many tasks, the interior and its design are becoming even more important for the occupants. Tuning in the area of the interior can therefore become even more important in the future. These include, among other things, the adjustment of the seats, the interior lighting or the audio and entertainment systems. Measures to improve the indoor climate or to reduce driving noise in the interior can also contribute to increasing comfort.
-
Performance increase & drive train optimization
Even if autonomous driving is primarily designed for safety and efficiency, there will still be various options for increasing performance and powertrain optimization. In the case of hybrid and electric vehicles in particular, the performance and range can be improved through targeted modifications to the electric motor, battery, control unit or the cooling of the battery. However, care must be taken to ensure that the adjustments continue to comply with legal regulations and that the safety of the vehicle is not impaired.
-
Chassis, steering and brakes
Despite the autonomous driving behavior, adjustments to the chassis, steering and brakes will still be possible. Targeted modifications can improve driving dynamics, road holding and driving comfort. However, special attention will have to be paid to ensuring that the adjustments are compatible with the autonomous driving systems and do not have any negative effects on safety and function.
-
Adaptation and integration of driver assistance systems
Driver assistance systems play a key role in autonomous vehicles. In the course of tuning, adjustments and extensions to these systems could therefore also be possible. This can involve further optimizing the functionality or ease of use of the assistance systems or generally integrating new technologies and sensors. However, one challenge will be to ensure that the modifications do not affect the reliability and safety of the autonomous systems and that they harmonize with each other.
-
Software tuning and artificial intelligence
The control and interaction of the various autonomous driving systems are largely based on software and artificial intelligence. Tuning in this area could therefore play an important role in the future. For example, vehicle performance, efficiency or driving behavior could be further optimized through targeted adjustments to the software. However, it is important that any adjustments are only carried out by qualified specialists and that the safety and legal compliance of the vehicles is guaranteed. This aspect should then be even more important than before.
-
Privacy and Cyber Security
With the advance of autonomous vehicles and the associated networking and data collection, issues such as data protection and cyber security are becoming increasingly important. As part of the tuning, it is therefore important to ensure that there are no security gaps and that the protection of the personal data of the vehicle occupants is guaranteed. Low-cost suppliers from China are already flooding the market via large platforms and offering everything from completely new infotainment systems to driver assistance systems for retrofitting. In our opinion, this market will really explode in the future. However, whether these cheap products harmonize with the current data protection regulations can legitimately be doubted.
Conclusion
- Autonomous driving will significantly shape the mobility of the future, but tuning and individualization will also play an important role in the new era. The possibilities for adapting and optimizing autonomous vehicles are at least as diverse as before. From the design of the exterior and interior to increased performance and powertrain optimization to software tuning and adjustments to the driver assistance systems, everything will certainly be represented in the future. It is important that the safety and legality of the vehicles are always in the foreground and that the adjustments are only carried out by experts if possible.
