It is interesting to think about how an automaker like Tesla which is more vertically integrated and has less in the way of legacy parts/tools/processes can make this change more easily than the established players. From the article:
If you cannot convert all of a vehicle’s systems to 48V architecture, the benefits of using such an architecture start to diminish pretty quickly . . . If an automaker decides to move to a 48V architecture, whatever car it builds must use 48V-ready accessories. But, suppliers aren’t incentivized to build such accessories without sufficient demand.
