Electric Vehicle Functional Safety Conference 2026: Ensuring Safety in the Next Generation of EVs
The rapid growth of electric vehicles (EVs) is transforming the automotive industry, bringing new opportunities—and new safety challenges. As EV manufacturers continue to develop advanced battery systems, software-defined vehicle architectures, and autonomous driving capabilities, functional safety has become more important than ever.
Modern EVs rely on complex electrical and electronic systems that must operate safely under all conditions. From battery management systems and high-voltage components to advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS), every function must be designed, tested, and validated to minimize risk. This is driving increased adoption of standards such as ISO
26262, which provides a framework for managing functional safety throughout the vehicle lifecycle.
At the same time, the rise of software-defined vehicles and over-the-air (OTA) updates is changing how safety is managed. Manufacturers must now ensure that software enhancements, AI-driven features, and connected vehicle technologies maintain safety performance long after a vehicle leaves the production line.
Battery safety is also receiving significant attention as automakers work to improve thermal management, reduce fire risks, and enhance the reliability of next-generation energy storage systems.
Join the Conversation
The 4th Annual Automotive Functional Safety Forum will bring together OEMs, Tier 1 suppliers, safety engineers, software developers, regulators, and technology leaders to discuss the latest developments in EV safety, ISO 26262 compliance, battery systems, autonomous driving, software-defined vehicles, and emerging automotive technologies.
Join industry experts to explore practical solutions for building safer, smarter, and more reliable electric vehicles.
