Key technologies and interactive experiences showcased by FORVIA will include: 

Electrification & Energy Management

Zero Emission multiple powertrain platform flexibility featuring technologies capable of supporting fuel cell electric, battery electric, and hybrid (FCEV and EV) powertrains. Displayed on a unique electric vehicle platform, it demonstrates how we can support multiple future powertrain architectures without compromising quality or performance.

Our state-of-the-art hydrogen storage system is an innovative prismatic composite structure that achieves up to 50% more storage capacity for greater autonomy compared to cylindrical tanks. As one of the industry pioneers in hydrogen storage system development, we are prepared to deliver next generation solutions to help automakers address critical zero emission and fuel cell integration challenges.

High voltage electric vehicle energy and thermal management technologies include our coolant control hub, high density onboard charger, high voltage DC/DC converter and lightweight, scalable battery management systems designed to maximize efficiency and reduce size, complexity, and cost. 

High Dynamic Range (HDR) green display builds on our market-first Perceptual Display Platform technology by enabling automatic image enhancement, energy saving and lifetime upgrading on any type of display hardware making it an ideal solution for electric vehicle manufacturers looking for battery optimized high-end display systems.

Our zonal module for state-of-the-art electric/electronic architecture ensures intelligent power and data distribution with highest safety of electrified powertrain, thanks to a world-first eFuse technology ensuring fail-operational power for automated driving. 

Safe & Automated Driving

Automated driving with best-in-class radars and sensors, enabling safety and visibility around the car with perceptive software, and data fusion. Fail operational electronics for steering and braking are available in FORVIA’s portfolio to ensure safe, automated and customized driving experiences. With both radar and camera, our solutions include interior child presence detection and driver distraction and drowsiness monitoring.

Reactive dimming, which made its debut at the 2023 Consumer Electronics Show, as a combination of gaze monitoring with smart dimming applied on eMirror that will help to reduce cognitive load, driver distraction and fatigue. 

Dynamic lighting with superior styling, up to 80 percent reduction of energy consumption compared to conventional taillights, and digital, flexible integration options configurable for automaker-specific design needs, including our award-winning Digital Headlamp Solid State Lighting High-Definition, SSL | HD.

Personalized Experiences in the Digital Sustainable Cockpit

Cabin Centerpiece “Lumières” demonstrating our highly versatile “Third Place” cockpit design. It offers an innovative and customized mobility experience between front and rear seats that creates an ‘at home’ environment through reconfigurable seating, adaptive lighting and individualized sound headrests. The cabin centerpiece achieves 45% CO2 emissions reductions through lightweight architectures, sustainable materials, and energy optimized electronics. It features groundbreaking exterior lighting solutions, gaze-based intuitive Human-Machine Interface (HMI) on multiple driving displays and brake-by-wire integration.

Modular and sustainable Seating and Interiors showcasing recyclable, bio-sourced materials, extended lifecycle usage, and customized comfort options to create an ideal occupant experience. World premiere technologies include our Modular Seat Architecture offering a simplified, flexible, and upgradable design and Compact Seat Structure improving electric vehicle battery space and creating a more comfortable passenger experience.

Digital mobility experience and connected services highlighting digital continuity from home to car with FORVIA’s market-leading Aptoide App Store, game and news center, and the possibility to upgrade your vehicle over-the-air with a wide set of FORVIA services. Reactive dimming and immersive display offer a safe and new digital experience for the driver. 

Advanced and Sustainable Interiors as part of FORVIA’s new MATERI’ACT brand focused on developing and producing at scale sustainable materials. These materials will provide up to 85 percent CO2 reduction by 2030 and combined within interior technologies such lens displays and active surface integration, delivering a 30 percent kWh reduction to boost electrical vehicles range extension.
