Hitachi empowers over-the-air software updates in Honda Legend

By CARSIFU | 26 April 2021


TOKYO: The new Honda Legend, which has Level 3 autonomous capability, will use Hitachi's Autonomous Driving Electronic Control Unit.

Along with Hitachi's OTA Unit, both parts would enable the Legend to update vehicle control software over the air.

The components were developed through a Honda-Hitachi joint venture company called Hitachi Astemo.

Hitachi Astemo said it saw the need to cater to future vehicles that would increasingly be built with more autonomous features.
