The relationship between software-defined vehicles and EVs, the evolution of new propulsion technologies, and the ways AI is being leveraged across the automotive industry.   These topics were among the core themes at SDV Social 2026, presented by Intrepid Control Systems. Held on the evening of Thursday, May 14th, at the Intrepid HQ in Troy, Michigan, the event featured cutting-edge tech demos, networking opportunities, and live music from Detroit rockers J2C.
