› it requires that the vehicle is under continuous control of the driver (Art. 8 UN regulation) › it doesn't allow the approval of "Autonomous Steering Systems" (ECE) in normal operation without human activation (e.g. flashing indicator)

› Driver need to intervene and rapidly take over control of the vehicle when automation fails

› Driver assistance system is capable of controlling speed and direction but requires an attentive driver
The architecture must change to support xEV, AD, SOTA and enabling MaaS while balancing system cost

Different OEMs approaches (evolutionary or disruptive)

These approaches can be clustered with good approximation into the following categories:
Domain Control Domain Integration Zone Architecture Car Computer
AD = automated driving; SOTA = software over the air; MaaS = mobility as a service
