Automated usage driven engineering

One or more non-transitory computer-readable storage media coupled to one or more processors and having instructions stored thereon which, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to perform operations for automating vehicle feature updates, the operations comprising:

• receiving telematics data identifying an actual usage of a vehicle;
• performing a gap analysis between the actual usage of the vehicle and an expected usage of the vehicle;
• determining a feature update based on the gap analysis;
• providing the feature update to a product engineering module when the feature cannot be implemented by a software update;
• and
• providing the feature update to an onboard computer system when the feature can be implemented by a software update.
