Porsche Engineering has added a high voltage charging management system (CMS) to its offering for automotive manufacturers. The modular software solution handles charge planning, power detection, vehicle authentication, infrastructure communication, charging flap control and mobile app data provision, and is compatible with most global specifications. Porsche Engineering operates as a technology partner within Porsche SE, the investment holding company that owns a majority of Volkswagen AG.
Why it matters: Automakers seeking integrated charging software can now procure a turnkey CMS from an established automotive engineering partner, potentially accelerating deployment timelines. The global compatibility claim suggests manufacturers can standardise charging management across multiple markets with a single supplier.
