As of 2026-07-17, analysis indicates that the DRAM capacity installed in a single premium smart car has surpassed 100GB, with NAND flash storage space reaching up to 1.5TB, according to market research firm TrendForce. The development of advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS), infotainment, and in-vehicle AI technology is driving an increase in memory semiconductors in vehicles. Tesla's 'HW 4.0' system is equipped with 32GB of GDDR6 and LPDDR memory, while the 'AI 4+' system has doubled that capacity to 64GB. Nvidia's 'Drive Orin' is offered in 32GB and 64GB configurations. Mercedes-Benz's 'MBUX' platform uses 24GB of memory, and BMW's 'iX3' and 'Neue Klasse' vehicles are estimated to use 16–24GB. Mercedes-Benz's next-generation operating system 'MB.OS' requires an additional 4–12GB of DRAM at minimum. Various electronic control units individually require 4–8GB of DRAM. Industry analysis suggests a modern luxury vehicle will have at least 40GB of DRAM, with top-tier models exceeding 100GB. For NAND flash, a typical OTA update is around 1–2GB, but major updates can exceed 10GB, consuming about 50GB for redundancy. Autonomous driving data storage requires 100–
