Headline: UNCAPTIONED: US to Ban Chinese and Russian Vehicle Tech Over Security Concerns by 2027

Caption: US to Ban Chinese and Russian Vehicle Tech Over Security Concerns by 2027. The US is set to ban certain Chinese and Russian hardware and software from being used in cars, trucks, and buses due to national security concerns, BBC News reports. Officials warn that tech in autonomous driving and connected cars could allow adversaries to manipulate vehicles remotely, posing significant risks. While Chinese and Russian software use in US cars is currently minimal, Commerce Secretary Gina Raimondo emphasized the need for proactive measures to protect security. Raimondo highlighted that cars today are equipped with sensitive tech like cameras, microphones, and GPS, which could be exploited by foreign entities. Chinese officials claim that the US is unfairly expanding its concept of national security to discriminate against Chinese companies and products. The proposal is the latest in a series of US measures to curb China’s influence in the auto manufacturing supply chain, including tariffs on electric vehicles and batteries. The ban on software would take effect with 2027 models, and hardware rules would be implemented three years later, giving manufacturers time to adjust. John Bozzella, president of Alliance for Automotive Innovation, warned that switching suppliers won’t be an overnight process, though some firms may be able to adapt in time. The US launched an investigation earlier this year to examine the potential cyber risks posed by connected cars, particularly those with foreign technology. Although the lead time could help some auto companies transition, others may struggle to comply within the proposed timeline, as noted by Bozzella.
