Stellantis forms JV with Foxconn to develop next-generation interior technologies
Automotive manufacturing group Stellantis and electronics manufacturer Foxconn have signed an MoU to form Mobile Drive, a 50/50 voting rights joint venture aimed at accelerating development timelines for in-vehicle user experiences, enabled by advanced consumer electronics, HMI interfaces and services.
According to the companies, the venture will combine Stellantis’s vehicle design and engineering capabilities with Foxconn’s developments in the software and hardware realms of smartphones and consumer electronics. This, they say, will position Mobile Drive at the forefront of global efforts to deliver new in-cabin information and entertainment capabilities that are fully connected.
“Today, there’s something that matters just as much as beautiful design or innovative technology – it’s how the features inside our vehicles improve the lives of our customers,” said Carlos Tavares, CEO at Stellantis.
