Quick Takeaways
- PAVE360 Automotive enables faster SDV development through pre-integrated, system-level digital twins aligned with real vehicle hardware.
- Siemens strengthens SDV readiness by combining PAVE360 with Arm compute platforms and showcasing it at CES 2026.
On December 18, PAVE360 Automotive was unveiled by Siemens as a pre-integrated, off-the-shelf digital twin software category built to manage the growing complexity of automotive hardware and software integration. Designed for speed and scale, the platform addresses modern vehicle programs where software breadth, compute diversity, and system interdependencies increasingly define outcomes.
How PAVE360 Automotive streamlines SDV engineering
PAVE360 Automotive enables automakers and suppliers to accelerate software-defined vehicle programs through early, full-system virtual integration that reflects real vehicle hardware. By supporting application and low-level software development across ADAS, automated driving, and in-vehicle infotainment, teams can validate behavior sooner and iterate faster.
Faster validation without custom digital twins
With PAVE360 Automotive, customers no longer need to build bespoke digital twins before testing software. Pre-integration shortens development cycles dramatically, helping reduce time to market from months to days while improving confidence in system interactions early in the program.
System-level digital twins for ADAS, AD, and IVI
The solution leverages Siemens’ Innexis software environment alongside supporting technologies to create system-level digital twins spanning:
Arm ecosystem integration expands development readiness
Building on earlier collaborations, Siemens is further integrating Arm Zena Compute Subsystems with PAVE360 Automotive. Following work with Arm Cortex-A720AE in 2024 and Arm Zena CSS in 2025, the expanded integration allows the industry to start building on Arm platforms faster and with smoother transitions from virtual to real hardware.
Availability and industry showcase
Siemens will demonstrate PAVE360 Automotive at CES 2026 from January 6–9, 2026. The software is currently available to select customers, with general availability scheduled to begin in February 2026, supporting broader adoption across SDV programs.
