Over the past 10 years, Faurecia has provided automotive manufacturers with forward-looking solutions in emissions control technology, lightweight technology, sound performance and energy recovery, and has contributed to reducing pollution emissions. Air quality has become a major issue in urban life. Regulations continue to increase demand for electrification and new technologies. In this context, the Faurecia Green Motion System (formerly the Faurecia Emission Control Technology System) will focus on three core areas:
· Integrate high-tech systems such as energy recovery and real-time data monitoring to create new technologies for more efficient and responsible use of thermal power generation and hybrid vehicles.
· Develop breakthrough innovations for the rapidly growing commercial vehicle market and the global off-highway high horsepower market, including ships and power generation.
· With the growth of electric vehicles, the use of professional advantages to develop innovative solutions, mainly focused on lightweight solutions including composite materials and battery thermal management.
The Faurecia Green Smart Wisdom System has been upgrading its expertise to meet increasingly stringent environmental standards and to meet public concerns about ecological issues. A comprehensive range of technical measures has also brought considerable product added value to automakers.
