Autonomous Mobility

Automation will bring radical changes to some aspects of driving. In the future, increasing traffic density will give drivers time for other activities in the car that are still impossible today. Stop/start traffic and parking in tight parking spaces will no longer be daunting prospects. Advanced driver assistance systems already allow the owner to hand over vehicle guidance to the vehicle in certain situations. Continental is using its full innovative prowess to drive forward this trend and is developing intelligent technologies that take over more and more driving functions – as long as the driver wants them to. The advantage: increased safety, more comfort, more convenience, and more efficiency.

You could learn more about our technologies and solutions for automated driving and how we are already shaping the mobility of tomorrow on our virtualThemeDay on the topic of Autonomous Mobility!

In our technology dossiers you can find background articles on the topics we presented to you at the TechSow Around the World 2021 theme day on automated and autonomous driving.
