What is the OTA function in cars?
1 Answers
Car OTA function refers to Over-The-Air technology, which enables remote software management through mobile communication interfaces, allowing software upgrades for corresponding ECUs via the vehicle's OBD at 4S shops. The scope of OTA updates covers modules such as human-machine interaction, autonomous driving, powertrain, and battery systems, improving driving range, maximum speed, and ride comfort. OTA is particularly crucial for new energy vehicles, as it enables remote control of vehicle systems or remote upgrades. Currently, OTA software upgrades are widely used in smartphones, automatically downloading upgrade packages and performing upgrades via the internet.
