In response to the evolution taking place in automotive, Electrification is progressing too. Formerly known as FOCUS: Electrification, this year, you’ll find a focus on both light and medium to heavy duty vehicles at our event as we discuss the unique challenges and opportunities for each. We understand that there is more to advancing electrification than propulsion developments alone. AutoTech: Electrification will assess all the ways in which the industry must prepare for the electric future, from vehicle design and manufacturing through to infrastructure developments, battery & hydrogen advancements, business models and more.
