LG Display has gained Automotive Spice Capability Level 2 certification for the software processes used in its car displays, another sign that the screen inside a modern vehicle is no longer just a screen.
The certification, known in the industry as Aspice CL2, was awarded by C&BIS, a Korean Automotive SPICE assessment body.
It covers LG Display’s software work for automotive instrument clusters and centre fascia displays, including diagnostic and control functions built into those displays.
Modern cars now rely heavily on software, from the digital speedometer to infotainment, vehicle settings and driver-assistance menus. If the software behind those systems is poorly developed, it can cause faults, recalls or safety headaches.
Aspice is an automotive industry standard used to assess whether a supplier has disciplined software development processes. Level 2 means those processes are managed and repeatable, rather than handled in an ad hoc way. That is important as cars move towards software-defined vehicles, where many functions can be controlled, updated or improved through software.
LG Display said the certification strengthens its role as a supplier for vehicle electronics. The company had also obtained ISO/SAE 21434 certification for automotive cybersecurity engineering in December 2025, covering cybersecurity risk management for road-vehicle electronic systems.
The Korean display maker now wants to use these certifications to win more automotive business, especially in North America. The move also shows how display companies are being pulled deeper into the car industry’s software race, not just the hardware supply chain.
