[ad_1] Possibly the most significant automotive supplier win announced this year was Mobileye signing on Porsche for its Supervision hardware-and-software combination, which will allow hands-off driving from 2025.

That happened with the Volvo EX30 – but, unusually, it was because the price is (whisper it) surprisingly low. Now let’s be clear: this is all relative.
