BENGALURU, India, Dec. 24, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — The CARIAD Business Unit of Bengaluru-based digital transformation specialist Embitel now operates as CARIAD India. The 400-person-strong team has been an established partner on numerous technology projects for CARIAD, the automotive software company of the Volkswagen Group.

Since 2020, Embitel’s CARIAD Business Unit has worked successfully with CARIAD on many technology projects, primarily in the areas of platform software, Scalable Vehicle Compute Platform, high-speed communication technologies, ADAS/AD, power systems, energy and charging, and body electronics. To further strengthen this partnership, Embitel’s CARIAD Business Unit now officially operates as CARIAD India under a licensing agreement with Germany-based CARIAD SE.

Sharad Bairathi, Managing Director of Embitel, commented: “The rebranding to CARIAD India marks a significant milestone. It shows everyone how close our links with CARIAD are. The internationally renowned brand name will be a major advantage in the highly competitive Indian technology sector.”

CARIAD’s Chief Launch Officer, Thomas Günther, added: “We are welcoming our colleagues in India even closer to the team. India’s technology landscape pulsates with innovation and working together under the CARIAD brand now strengthens our joint commitment to delivering cutting-edge automotive software solutions.”

CARIAD India has grown continuously and now has close to 400 employees. It started with a small team delivering base services for the Driver Reflection Module, which is an integral part of the Volkswagen Group’s advanced driver assistance systems. This team later expanded to develop software for a microcontroller and the Scalable Vehicle Compute Platform (SVCP), a flexible system that supports various automotive functions, including communication interfaces and power management for electric cars.

The ADAS/AD team, established in 2022, works on behaviour software, sensors, map localization, driving, and safety projects. Equipped with advanced systems, the lab in Bengaluru is a key partner for CARIAD in Germany and internationally.

CARIAD India has also established an expert team to work on solutions for vehicle, energy, charging and body functions. The power electronics software team develops the diagnostics, security and bootloader functions. Another team is currently being setup for the high-voltage energy management systems for new vehicle platforms.

The rebranding to CARIAD India does not alter the ownership or legal status of Embitel Technologies India Pvt. Ltd. – which continues to be the legal entity. Embitel remains a subsidiary of the diconium group and, thus part of Volkswagen Group Sales IT.
