The code first approach

What is Eclipse SDV ?

An open collaboration platform to accelerate the innovation of software-defined vehicles. The initiative supports scalable, modular, and safety-capable software components for in-vehicle and cloud-to-car systems.

Industry impact

Proving open source
in automotive

Eleven of Europe’s most influential automotive companies signed a landmark Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) in June 2025 that signals a united commitment to open source collaboration for the software-defined vehicle (SDV). In the first instance, efforts are centered around the Eclipse S-CORE project.

Collaborating for
the SDV era

The Eclipse SDV Working Group connects 50+ OEMs, tier 1s, and tech leaders, driving 25+ projects, shaping the future, and setting new benchmarks for safety-certifiable open source in automotive software.

Vision

We define the future of mobility by establishing the world’s leading open, collaborative, and vendor-neutral software platform for the automotive industry, accelerating innovation while ensuring safety, trust, and sustainability at every layer of the vehicle software stack.

Mission

Eclipse SDV brings together automakers, suppliers, and technology innovators to build an open, modular, and safety-ready software foundation for future vehicles, enabling faster innovation, seamless integration, and a sustainable open source ecosystem for the automotive industry.

Our approach

Using a “code first” approach, Eclipse SDV is vendor-neutral and community driven, ensuring that innovation benefits the entire ecosystem. Through open collaboration, members co-create and share solutions that form the foundation of the software-defined vehicle era.

Our vision

Through well established governance, open collaboration, transparent decision-making, and strategic alignment, the Eclipse SDV Working Group is ensuring that the software-defined vehicle is not just a vision, it’s a collaborative reality being built today.

Building blocks and integration projects

The Working Group hosts 25+ active open source projects, developing shared building blocks for critical automotive domains such as:

  • Middleware: Core communication and data layers
  • Orchestration: Integration and management across systems
  • Safety:Reliable, certifiable software standards
  • Simulation: Scalable testing and validation environments

How we collaborate

Our members do more than contribute code, they:

  • Shape industry standards and best practices
  • Influence governance through open participation
  • Co-create integration projects such as:
      • Eclipse Leda
      • Eclipse S-CORE
      • Eclipse SDV Blueprints

These initiatives are already recognised as reference points across the automotive sector.
