Stellantis and Qualcomm Technologies have expanded their long-term collaboration to support the next generation of software-defined vehicles powered by Snapdragon Digital Chassis system-on-chip (SoC) platforms.
The enhanced partnership will integrate Qualcomm’s Snapdragon Digital Chassis technology into STLA Brain, Stellantis’ central software and electronics architecture. This will improve cockpit performance, connectivity, and ADAS capabilities across future vehicles.
The collaboration is designed as a scalable foundation to accelerate time-to-market, enable continuous software upgrades, and enhance the overall driving experience. It also supports Stellantis’ strategy to increase cost efficiency through platform standardisation across brands and vehicle segments.
The agreement includes the Snapdragon Ride Pilot ADAS platform, which scales from active safety and regulatory functions to Level 2+ hands-free driving and more advanced autonomous capabilities. Stellantis plans to deploy these systems across millions of vehicles worldwide.
Building on their existing work in cockpit and connectivity systems, the partnership will further boost computing power and AI-driven capabilities across Stellantis’ portfolio, aiming to deliver safer, smarter, and more intuitive in-car experiences.
The two companies have also signed a non-binding letter of intent regarding the potential integration of aiMotive into Qualcomm Technologies, subject to conditions. As vehicles become more centralized, software-defined, and AI-powered, demand for high-performance computing continues to rise. This collaboration highlights the growing importance of semiconductor platforms in enabling faster innovation, greater efficiency, and more advanced automotive intelligence.
