Autonomous Vehicle Developer AUMOVIO to Use AWS Cloud and AI Capabilities

AUMOVIO selected Amazon Web Services (AWS) as its preferred cloud provider to help the company accelerate the development of autonomous vehicles.

The integration of agentic and generative artificial intelligence capabilities into AUMOVIO’s autonomous development and validation workflows will speed up manufacturers’ development, testing and preparation of autonomous vehicles for real-world deployment, the companies said in a Tuesday (Jan. 6) press release.

AUMOVIO, which was formerly the automotive group sector of Continental, listed on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange as an independent company in September.

“We are creating a solution that combines cloud infrastructure, AI capabilities and automotive expertise, efficiently turning data into actionable insights across complex information environments,” Ismail Dagli, executive board member and head of the autonomous mobility business area at AUMOVIO, said in the Tuesday release. “This collaboration is not only about accelerating development for our customers, but also about helping promote safety, efficiency and innovation in autonomous driving.”

The combination of AUMOVIO’s automotive technology expertise and AWS’ cloud infrastructure and AI capabilities, including Amazon Bedrock, will help manufacturers process the massive amount of data involved in the development of self-driving vehicles and improve vehicle hazard detection, according to the release.

“At AWS, we believe the future of autonomous mobility isn’t just about technology—it’s about enabling our partners to deliver on the promise of safer, more efficient transportation at scale,” Ozgur Tohumcu, general manager of automotive and manufacturing at AWS, said in the release.

The first use of the solutions enabled by this collaboration will be in AUMOVIO’s work with Aurora on autonomous trucks, per the release. The two companies are co-developing a new generation of the Aurora Driver.

Aurora worked with AWS on the development of Aurora Driver, Matt Ellis, senior vice president of software engineering at Aurora, said in the release.

“Assembling an ecosystem of world-class partners to deliver the Aurora Driver at scale will continue to be key to strengthening our leadership in autonomous freight,” Ellis said.

Aurora is developing self-driving systems for commercial vehicles like trucks and plans to deploy driverless trucks at scale, PYMNTS reported in January 2025.

AWS also collaborates with other firms to develop advanced driver assistance systems, automated driving and new digital car experiences, according to the same report.
