It aims to establish an integrated software architecture to improve vehicle functionality, user experience, and operational efficiency.

The collaboration is expected to redevelop the technological framework of future vehicle generations, stated KPIT, a software development and integration partner to the automotive and mobility ecosystem.
KPIT Technologies CEO Kishor Patil said: “With over 100 years of legacy, Mercedes-Benz is an inspiration for excellence, luxury, and customer centricity.

Earlier this month, Mercedes-Benz reported a 7% drop in deliveries for the first quarter of 2025 (January to March), with sales of cars and vans reaching 529,200 units, as against 568,400 units during the same period in the previous year.
This decline is attributed primarily to reduced demand in its important markets such as China and Europe.
Furthermore, the company experienced a 10% fall in battery electric vehicle sales, with 45,500 units sold compared to 50,500 vehicles in the same quarter of the previous year.
