## Major automotive collaboration

Stellantis will adopt Intel's Mobileye technology for Jeep, Ram, and other brands. Launching in 2027, this partnership covers Level 2 autonomous features. Mobileye's EyeQ chip and REM data network will enable hands-free driving in designated areas without steering wheel contact.

## REM's global network

Mobileye's Road Experience Management (REM) covers 95% of U.S. and European roads. Its 3D maps, built from data collected by 8 million vehicles, allow assist systems to function even on unmarked roads. The network logged 34 billion miles of data last year alone.

## Competition intensifies

Following Ford and GM, Stellantis joins the autonomous driving race. While its Hands-Free Active Driving Assist currently has limited availability, the 'eyes-off' STLA AutoDrive system developed with Wayve will launch in 2028 for stop-and-go traffic scenarios.

## Software revenue boom

ADAS systems will become cash cows for automakers through subscriptions and software sales. The market is projected to reach $90 billion in the next decade. Mobileye reported Q1 2026 revenue of $558 million, a 27% year-over-year increase.

## Safety or convenience?

While ADAS can reduce accidents, current adoption focuses mainly on highway comfort. Stellantis emphasizes 'reclaiming valuable time' in traffic with 'eyes-on' systems that maintain driver awareness, avoiding full disengagement during initial rollout phases.

## Industry at a tipping point

Mobileye now supplies tech to 5 of the world's top 10 automakers. Data-driven driving systems will bridge the gap to full autonomy. Stellantis' move signals a reshaping of consumer expectations and automotive standards in the coming decade.
