Abstract

Mechanisms and methods are provided for establishing vectors indicating the presence, in a first vehicle and second vehicle, of a super-set of vehicle features present across a fleet of vehicles. The first vehicle may be a reference vehicle. A distance function of the vectors may be calculated in order to establish a similarity score indicating the degree of similarity between the designs of the two vehicles. If the second vehicle is sufficiently similar to the reference vehicle, a software update may be recommended and applied.
