Rendition of booth exhibit
Tokyo, April 7, 2023 -- Hitachi Astemo is pleased to announce that Hitachi Astemo (China) Ltd., our regional head office in China, will exhibit at the 20th Shanghai International Automobile Industry Exhibition (Auto Shanghai 2023), held from Tuesday, April 18 to Thursday, April 27 in Shanghai, China.
The company will showcase its advanced mobility solutions that improve safety and comfort, and contribute to conserving the environment for a sustainable future.
China, which is the world's largest automotive market, has government targets to reduce carbon dioxide emissions by 2030 and become carbon neutral by 2060. To achieve these targets, aggressive policies are under review that include limiting new-vehicle sales to "environmentally friendly vehicles," split between new-energy vehicles—mainly electric vehicles—and hybrid vehicles. This policy could be in place by 2035.
Advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) and related products contribute to reducing traffic accidents, traffic congestion and driver burden. Their demand is increasing worldwide, and demand is forecasted to increase significantly in China.
