| EUCAR - European
Council for Automotive R&D EUCAR was established on 27 May 1994, evolving from the previous Joint Research Committee (JRC) of the European motor vehicle manufacturers. Following on from the scientific cooperation carried out by the JRC, EUCAR has begun to foster strategic cooperation in research & technological development (R&TD) activities. EUCAR developed an Automotive R&TD Master Plan in 2000 in order to define a European approach to technologies for automotive development. In 2001, a Position Paper was published, presenting the major R&D challenges the automotive industry is facing along three dimensions: Energy, Environment & Resources ; Road Safety ; Mobility & Transport The objective of this common approach is progressively to achieve technologies for the optimisation of the motor vehicle of the future. This continuous process will also provide intermediate solutions for substantial improvements in the short and medium term. The members of EUCAR represent the major European motor vehicle manufacturers: BMW Group, DaimlerChrysler, Fiat, Ford in Europe, Opel, Porsche, PSA Peugeot-Citroën, Renault, Volkswagen Group, Volvo. |
