$As the automotive industry transitions to hybrids and fully electric vehicles, advanced driver assist systems (ADAS), self-driving, the software-defined vehicle (SDV), and vehicle-to-everything (V2X) communications, a wrench has been thrown into the works. Semiconductors, upon which all of these technological advances rely, are now the subject of fractious geopolitics. The world had spent decades globalising industry. Now country-of-origin is a priority.$ $As the automotive industry transitions to hybrids and fully electric vehicles, advanced driver assist systems (ADAS), self-driving, the software-defined vehicle (SDV), and vehicle-to-everything (V2X) communications, a wrench has been thrown into the works.
