Automotive standards made operational.
Automotive industry Quality and Engineering is a technical explainer show for the systems behind modern vehicle safety. It turns standards such as IATF 16949, ISO PAS 8800, and ISO 26262 into concrete questions about audits, software, suppliers, data, and risk.

Automotive industry Quality and Engineering is a standards-first show about how modern vehicles are made trustworthy. It treats automotive quality as a chain of evidence. Each episode takes a technical document, customer requirement, or safety framework and works through what it demands from engineers, suppliers, software teams, auditors, and manufacturing managers. The tone is explanatory and controlled. Rather than selling the romance of cars, the show studies the systems that keep cars from becoming unsafe when processes, code, data, or people fail. Its recurring world is the factory floor, the audit room, the supplier requirement, and the increasingly software-defined vehicle. IATF 16949 episodes focus on the gap between certified systems and actual operating discipline. The show is especially sharp when it distinguishes prevention from detection, because that difference determines whether a defect is stopped or merely found late. Renault customer-specific requirements bring the discussion down to reverse FMEA, operator fatigue, awkward workstations, and preventive action. Iveco requirements are framed as a tightly controlled compliance ecosystem, where certification alone is not enough. ISO PAS 8800 episodes move the concern into artificial intelligence. Here, datasets become safety artifacts, isolation becomes an engineering management strategy, and over-the-air updates raise uncomfortable questions about permanent certification. ISO 26262 appears as the governing language for functional safety, from ASIL ratings to hazard analysis and risk assessment. The show also covers electric vehicle standards, automotive cybersecurity risk analysis, and the NVIDIA Spark Process for ISO 26262 compliance. Its method is consistent. It defines the acronym, explains the rule, gives a physical or organizational example, and returns to the consequence if the rule is misunderstood. That makes dense material unusually navigable. The production sometimes carries intrusive ad material, and a few excerpts include unrelated promotional blocks before or after the technical segment. Still, the editorial core is clear. This is a podcast for people who want to understand how automotive quality systems are supposed to work when lives, audits, suppliers, and software all meet in the same vehicle.
Made for: Built for quality managers, automotive engineers, supplier teams, auditors, and technically curious listeners who want standards explained without losing rigor. It also suits anyone tracking AI, software, and electric-vehicle safety through an industry compliance lens.
What sets it apart: The show’s edge is its insistence on operational consequences: every acronym is tied back to a plant, a process, a dataset, a supplier rule, or a failure mode. It makes standards feel less like documentation and more like the hidden operating system of vehicle safety.
This podcast is dedicated to Automotive Industry,innovation,research and development,quality and engineering and official vehicle recalls occured.If you want to share with me this passion for cars and engines you're in the right place and I would like to give you a warm welcome.

Short reviews from the PlayNext desk, based on the episodes we processed.
A plainspoken look at how AI car safety turns into an engineering problem, not a slogan.
The episode treats ISOPUS 8800 as a practical map for how vehicle safety has to change once AI sits inside a two ton machine. It keeps AI specific compliance separate from the systems already governing the vehicle, and it makes the case for treating datasets as safety critical…
Audit-ready paperwork is not the same as a quality system that actually works.
This episode keeps its focus on the gap between audit-ready paperwork and what actually happens on the shop floor. It treats compliance as the starting point, then asks a better question: does the quality system stop defects from being made, respond when failures surface, and…
Reverse FMEA turns Renault's quality story into a factory-floor exercise.
The episode presents Renault's quality push as a supply-chain risk story, and that framing gives the piece real force. A car may seem like one solid object, but the point is that it is actually built from tens of thousands of parts drawn from thousands of companies across dozens…
A clear look at how safety standards turn risk into concrete engineering work.
This episode makes automotive functional safety feel concrete, not abstract, by treating ASIL levels and ARA as practical tools rather than buzzwords.
A clear overview of the standards and safety questions behind EV charging.
Electric Vehicle Standards frames the EV boom as a story about standards and safety, not just hardware. It moves through SAE in North America, ANSI's Electric Vehicle Standards Panel, Germany's DIN, CHAdeMO, and China's national standards for EVSE, while engineers,…
Enterprise tech, translated into operating reality.
Odd questions, followed patiently down to the incentives.
Can AI-driven cars be certified safe?
Automotive industry Quality and Engineering uses Velko Massimo Plavzic's IATF 16949 guide to explain why a gold-seal certificate can hide chaos on the factory floor.
The hosts start with Renault and reverse FMEA.
This episode analyzes Iveco Group's mandatory Customer-Specific Requirements document that supplements the IATF 16949 automotive quality standard, detailing the strict compliance ecosystem for suppliers.
Two speakers walk through the hierarchy of automotive functional safety.
This episode conducts a forensic analysis of a technical document titled 'Documentazione di Progetto sulla Sicurezza Automobilistica' to extract the scope and implications of an automotive cybersecurity project from its metadata.
The conversation starts with the visible rise of electric vehicles on the road.
This episode explores NVIDIA's Spark Process Documentation as a blueprint for achieving ISO 26262 compliance to ensure the highest safety and reliability in automotive software systems.
This episode explains Stellantis' customer-specific requirements (CSR) for IATF 16949, detailing how they differ from the comprehensive QRS document and their role in automotive supplier quality.
This episode discusses the complexity of modern vehicle manufacturing and introduces the 2025 release of Ford's IATF Customer-Specific Requirements for quality standards.
This episode explores BMW's strategic implementation of a virtual factory, using digital simulations to design and test complex car manufacturing processes without physical construction.
This episode provides a deep dive into a recent Ford Explorer recall involving detaching door trim, analyzing the specifics and implications of this automotive safety issue.
