Connected objects and 5G are developing rapidly, as are applications of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Big Data. This technological acceleration is having an impact on the way in which vehicles are manufactured and used. It is transforming and improving the safety of road travel by enabling interactions between road users, connected vehicles, and smart infrastructure. It also lays the groundwork for innovative solutions: robotaxis, micro-mobility, advanced air mobility, and more. The mobility of the future is developing at varying speeds, shaped by regional expectations and regulations. While autonomous vehicles are already a reality for certain purposes in China and the United States, the European Union wants to establish robust legislation and is preparing a regulatory framework to guarantee user safety and trust. This technological progress is paving the way for a future in which mobility will be smarter and safer, providing innovative solutions to meet everyone’s needs. 2025 Integrated report | OPmobility | 13
