Automotive safety is always the focus of consumers, the selling point of products, the focus of technology. In order to achieve automatic driving, interconnection with the outside world, human-automatic system interaction, the security connotation of intelligent and connected vehicles (ICV) changes: information security is the basis of its security. Functional safety ensures that the system is operating properly. Behavioral safety guarantees a secure interaction between people and vehicles. Passive security should not be weakened, but should be strengthened based on new constraints. In terms of information safety, the threshold for attacking cloud, pipe, and vehicle information should be raised to ensure that ICV system does not fail due to malicious attacks. The cloud is divided into three cloud platforms according to functions: ICVs private cloud, TSP cloud, public cloud.

Smart vehicles have become an important development direction of the transformation and upgrading of the automotive industry. Highly intelligent smart vehicles can free human drivers from driving tasks, endowing cars with the mobility and instrument properties. Smart cockpits integrate the media for interactions between humans and environments inside and outside cars. This paper has explored the components of smart cockpits, sorted out three development stages of smart cockpits from such three dimensions as man, car and environment, analyzed the characteristics of the second development stage (Stage 2.0), and illustrated the necessity of the competition between smartphones and head units at the second stage. Based on the comparison of merits and demerits between smartphones and head units, this paper has proposed three principles for an ideal division of duties of smartphones and head units.

The new technological revolution is promoting the intelligent upgrade of vehicles. Traditional vehicles are gradually developing into intelligent connected vehicles (ICVs). New features such as autonomous driving, smart cockpits, and Internet of Vehicle of ICVs have brought users safe, comfortable and interesting travel experiences. Vehicle software, containing a wealth of functions and continuously outputting valuable data, has become the core of the definition of vehicle functions. Traditional vehicle hardware has gradually decoupled from software and become standardized, modular and shared resources. At present, the era of Software-Defined Vehicle (SDV) is coming soon, which is bound to bring subversive changes to both vehicle technologies and industrial ecologies. However, the lack of comprehensive understanding and the clear development way of SDV are ubiquitous in all kinds of corporations in vehicle industry. This will make them be caught off guard when SDV really comes.
