Institute of Automotive Engineering focuses on the strategic research topics:

Low Emission Mobility

• Development of new and alternative engines and powertrains, development of electric mobility, use of alternative fuels including hydrogen
• The use of advanced materials and technologies in road transport vehicles, their production using digital technologies and artificial intelligence
• Reducing the negative environmental impact of transport

Autonomous mobility

• the development of automated and autonomous vehicles and unmanned systems, intelligent transport systems, cooperative intelligent transport systems and new modes of transport incorporating a broader concept of mobility as a service
• safety, efficiency and traffic flow and management
• transport – an integrating element of society with significant socio-economic effects, reflecting the principles of sustainable development
