Autonomous vehicles – new European cooperation

The SMARTAUTO project was launched on 1 May 2025 and aims to promote the benefits of autonomous vehicles and their wider deployment across Europe, with the participation of universities, research institutes, public transport companies, government agencies, technology centres, automated transport testing organisations and innovation support organisations. In this partnership, our Agency will primarily exchange experiences on self-driving or autonomous buses.

The project kick-off meeting took place online on 14 May 2025 and will be followed by the first study visit in Magdeburg in the fall of 2025.

At the online event, all partners had the opportunity to present themselves. The project's main milestones were also discussed.

On our channels we will continuously report on the European and domestic situation of this form of transport, which is still considered a novelty.

We are looking forward to the next meeting!
