The Eve of a New Driving Era

Project EVE is a new EU-funded project that will develop high-tech ground vehicle systems.

The project partners will develop innovative vehicle components that target improvements in safety, energy efficiency and driving comfort. The development will also include new hardware subsystems for brakes, active suspension and tyre pressure control for on-road and off-road mobility. A unique network-distributed vehicle testing programme for integrated chassis systems will be set-up between all partners.

Project EVE is part of the European Commission’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation program.

“The invitation to participate in this prestigious project recognises expertise in active suspension technology based on the development of our ACOCAR^® (Active Suspension Car) system,” said Timothy Jackson, Chief Technology Officer, Tenneco.  “We are proud to contribute our experience in advanced research, development, design for manufacturing and testing to this academic and industrial partnership.”
