HCLTech and Astemo Cypremos Partner to Advance Autonomous Vehicles

HCLTech has entered a multi-year agreement with Tokyo-based Astemo Cypremos Ltd., a subsidiary of Astemo Ltd. The collaboration will focus on developing an ecosystem for autonomous and smart vehicles. The update was shared in an exchange filing dated July 9, 2025.

As part of the deal, HCLTech will support Cypremos in its transition to a software-defined vehicle (SDV) model. The company will use its proprietary software testing tool TestSphere, AI-led service platform AI Force, and cloud engineering solution Cloud Bridge.
