SafeEV: Current and planned activities

Poster (konferens), 2014

Within the next ten to 15 years more and more small (and alternative drive train) vehicles will come to the roads. The latest results of the Automotive Landscape study by Roland Berger Consulting states that „Small vehicles will grow fastest across the globe“ by 2025. This trend will motivate in particular the development and market introduction of alternatively powered / small electric vehicles. Especially for urban areas these SEVs will be beneficial due to e.g. less space required, better mobility incl. parking, zero/reduced local emissions (related to local regulations), etc. The main objective of SafeEV is the development and application of new advanced simulation tools & methods aimed at improved protection of pedestrian and occupants of electric vehicles (EVs) in the future on urban areas.
