Abstract
Cyber-physical systems, electrification, autonomous driving, connectivity, and shared mobility pose new challenges for powertrain development. To cope with these challenges, development approaches such as systems engineering need to be applied and further improved. Possible directions for the development of systems engineering are discussed together with the required skills and changes in education. The challenges of current development approaches are described from the powertrain development perspective. As the complexity of mechatronic and cyber-physical systems continues to increase rapidly, a deep understanding of systems in their ecosystems provides new opportunities for business and technological innovation. In the future, systems engineering as an approach needs to be customizable in order to fit to individual constraints such as organization, processes, methods available, resources, skills, and IT tools.
