The automotive industry is currently undergoing a once in a century transformation, propelled by rapid technological innovation in fields such as electrification and autonomous driving. In China, the world’s largest automotive market, increasingly strict environmental regulations have been enacted, including the enforcement of the New Energy Vehicle (NEV) regulations from January 2019. In light of this situation, automotive manufacturers are launching many new vehicle models such as electric vehicles (EVs) and hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs), with China seeing accelerated adoption of environmentally friendly vehicles.
Furthermore, China is currently facing societal challenges, such as traffic accidents and traffic congestion, and through government and private industry collaboration, the development of autonomous driving technology has been rapidly promoted as a measure to solve these challenges. In addition to automotive manufacturers, companies from other industries such as IT are entering the market, driving the accelerated development on new technologies in China.
At Auto Shanghai 2019, Hitachi Automotive Systems will showcase technologies such as vehicle electrification and autonomous driving systems, which will contribute to solving the challenges currently facing automotive society. Moving forward, Hitachi Automotive Systems will focus on solving the challenges of a mobility society by offering next generation automotive technologies.
At this exhibition, Hitachi Automotive Systems will exhibit in the Hitachi Booth (Booth No. 5BF-025) at the Shanghai National Exhibition and Convention Center. The exhibits will be divided into the following sections.
