Europe's drive for smarter, safer and cleaner cars


Creation date: 13 September 2007


Safe distance, safe speed. Visibility problems, safety at crossroads, and detecting obstacles … Information and communications technologies (ICTs) can play a key role in allowing drivers to better understand road hazards, so as to improve overall road safety. A public exhibition (free entrance) will be organised on Saturday 22 September 2007 (8:00 – 17:00 - Main entrance: Château de Versailles).


On this occasion, visitors can discover for themselves the car of tomorrow by exploring cars with various safety applications gathered especially for this event at Versailles.

There will be:

  • Some 20 prototypes - Place d’Armes, in front of the main entrance to the chateau
  • Dynamic demonstrations of ESC (Electronic Stability Control) - avenue de Paris
  • Videos and technical descriptions
  • Experts to answer your questions
  • Information stands


The intelligent car exhibition is organised by PReVENT, an EU-funded research project, in collaboration with the town of Versailles, eSafetyAware! and ChooseESC!

Further information will be available on the Intelligent Car website, to be launched on 18 September 2007.
