(NASDAQ: NXPI) today unveiled the S32N7 super-integration processor series, building on the same 5 nm foundation as the S32N55, to enable a new era where carmakers can digitalize the core functions of every vehicle – propulsion, vehicle dynamics, body, gateway and safety domains - cutting complexity and unlocking AI-powered innovation at scale. The S32N7 series is engineered to consolidate software and data into a single centralized hub at the core of the vehicle, with uncompromising safety and security. The new processor series empowers carmakers to greatly simplify vehicle architectures and reduce total cost of ownership by as much as 20%, achieved through the elimination of dozens of hardware modules, and enhanced efficiencies in wiring, electronics and software. By centralizing intelligence, automakers gain a foundation to scale AI-driven innovation across the entire vehicle. This accelerates software business models and enables intelligent features such as personalized driving, predictive maintenance, and virtual sensors. A high-performance data backbone on the S32N7 series ensures a future-proof path for upgrading to the latest AI silicon without re-architecting the vehicle, allowing carmakers to continually differentiate. Designed for the software-defined future, the S32N7 redefines vehicle architectures by digitalizing the core functions of the vehicle, enabling scalable hardware and software across models and brands. Centralizing software accelerates development and reduces total cost of ownership. With access to core vehicle data and high compute performance, the S32N7 series becomes the central AI control point for next-generation mobility. Accelerating Software-Defined Mobility with Bosch Bosch is the first to deploy the S32N7 in its vehicle integration platform. Together, NXP and Bosch have co‑developed reference designs, safety frameworks, hardware integration, and an expert enablement program, accelerating system deployment and reducing integration effort for early adopters.
