Introduction
This report was created by MarkLines based on patent information from the "Technical Information Distribution Service - AI Ninja" provided by Toyota Technical Development Corporation (TTDC), and covers current technological topics surrounding the automotive industry. TTDC operates intellectual property (IP) and measurement and control businesses. The intellectual property (IP) business collects and analyzes information on global automobile development, provides consulting on research and planning, and handles foreign patent applications and technical translations.
In recent years, as electrification and vehicle sophistication have progressed in the automotive industry, the importance of technology areas centered on vehicle control, communication, and software has been rapidly increasing. Particularly in countries and regions such as the United States, Europe, and China, there is an ongoing shift from traditional, hardware-centric automotive technology toward vehicle development based on software, data, and communications. This shift is driven by advancements in AI-powered driver assistance and autonomous driving systems, cybersecurity measures associated with connected vehicles, and the adoption of wireless communication technologies such as V2X and 5G.
In response to these technology advancements, India and Southeast Asia are developing and revising legal systems and guidelines that cover new technology fields such as cybersecurity, wireless communication, and autonomous driving, in addition to existing legal regulations that primarily focus on vehicle body structure and collision safety. Many of these regulations directly affect vehicle type approval, sales, and registration requirements. This necessitates compliance not only in vehicle design and development, but also in operational aspects such as cloud operation, OTA updates, data management, and wireless device certification. Automotive manufacturers and suppliers are therefore working to comply with the regulations of the aforementioned countries.
This report analyzes the legal and regulatory activities for countries that have recently begun to follow these trends, rather than focusing on the major market countries. This report summarizes regulatory trends regarding cybersecurity, wireless communications, and autonomous driving for vehicles in India, Indonesia, Thailand, and Vietnam. The purpose of this study is to investigate the institutional background, competent government agencies, legal frameworks (laws, ordinances, guidelines), implementation status, and practical impact in the four aforementioned countries, and to clarify the differences with the laws and guidance of the United States, Europe, and China, as well as the compliance points that automobile OEMs and suppliers should be aware of.
