Committee for the Realization of a Sustainable Automotive Society
1.Aim of activity
In order to take a bird's-eye view of future mobility society, including automobiles, and continuously consider long-term technology roadmaps, we will hold wide-ranging discussions that go beyond the traditional framework of JSAE. In order for Japan's automobile industry to create new value, we will deepen interdisciplinary discussions involving experts in a wide range of technical fields, set common goals that industry, government, and academia should work together on, and encourage all relevant parties to create new value. Appeal to the public as a proposal. Through this, we will maintain the high competitiveness of Japan's automobile technology, embody and share the ideas of many engineers involved in automobiles and automobile society, and widely disseminate them.
