88 I-CONNECT007 MAGAZINE I FEBRUARY 2026 ROA D TO R E L I A B I L IT Y BY S TA N TO N R A K , S F R A K C O M PA N Y Safety First ADAS, Connectivity, and Interfaces on the Road to Reliability EVs function as intelligent, software-centric platforms where safety, connectivity, and user expe- riences are deeply intertwined. Advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS), vehicle connectiv- ity architectures, and digital driver interfaces now play a central role in both vehicle operation and customer perception. EVs provide synergies for ADAS and connectivity because their strong electri- cal base provides a natural framework for integrating the advanced sensors, telematics, and high-reliabil- ity control units required for ADAS and connected systems. As these systems proliferate, their electron- ics' reliability increasingly governs not only functional safety but also user trust and brand reputation. 1
