The Department of Commerce's Connected Vehicle Rule represents the most significant supply chain shake-up facing the automotive industry in decades. This comprehensive regulation prohibits transactions involving Automated Driving System (ADS) software and Vehicle Connectivity System (VCS) hardware and software where the covered hardware or software is designed, developed, manufactured, or supplied by persons owned by, controlled by, or subject to the jurisdiction or direction of China or Russia. Because of the intricate, international nature of the automotive supply chain (and because so many companies rely on Chinese companies for significant elements of their supply chain), the Rule will fundamentally reshape how OEMs and suppliers must approach their global supply chains.
