| Automated vehicles - A roadmap for the future?
Wednesday, 20 November | 09:30 - 11:00 CET REGISTER HERE
Automation in road transport is a key priority for the European Commission, closely aligned with important policy objectives such as the greening and digitalisation of the transport sector. Cooperative, Connected, and Automated Mobility (CCAM) is central to this transformation, offering the potential for safer, more inclusive road transportation while enhancing the competitiveness of European industries.
Vehicle automation has been in the spotlight for almost a decade, depicted as a technology with the potential to revolutionise road transport. Early excitement was largely driven by tech companies and high-profile start-ups, but significant progress over the years has come from car and truck manufacturers, who have been leading its development.
Industry stakeholders recognise that, in recent years, the initial enthusiasm for vehicle automation has somewhat decreased. However, its potential applications and benefits have become more clearly defined. The industry now has a more practical view and a clearer understanding of how to make automated vehicles become reality.
With the need to improve road safety, reduce greenhouse gas emissions, and continue driving innovation in the automotive industry, the next wave of legislation for the type approval of automated vehicles is on the horizon.
Join this Euractiv event to explore the roadmap for the future of automated vehicles.
