The essence of vehicle propulsion is shifting from engines powered by gasoline or diesel to electric power from batteries or fuel cells, and driving is also transitioning to autonomous systems or driverless vehicles.

The Smart Mobility Expo 2023 will address the dissemination of knowledge in the automotive industry and its components, as well as supporting industries. It will also serve as an exchange of academic experiences, techniques, and understanding of trends in various aspects of automotive development from specialized experts in all sectors. This is to ensure a smooth transition of the automotive industry into the era of new vehicles.
