Amazon and Stellantis End In-Car Software Partnership
Imagine Amazon and the car company Stellantis were building special computer systems for cars, like a super smart tablet built into your car.
They wanted the cars to feel like an extension of your home.
But, the companies have decided to stop working together on this project.
They wanted the cars to do things like adjust the temperature and even control your house lights, all from your car.
This decision allows both companies to focus on other ideas and ways to provide value to customers.
Amazon and Stellantis are ending their partnership to develop in-car software.
The SmartCockpit project, announced in 2022, aimed to integrate Amazon's technology into Stellantis vehicles.
The project was intended to personalize vehicle settings and offer features like home automation.
The partnership aimed to help Stellantis compete with companies like Tesla in automotive software.
Stellantis will continue to use Amazon Web Services and Alexa will remain available in some vehicles.
