Today, 94 percent of Valeos sales are derived from technologies that help to reduce CO2 emissions and improve road safety. 

January 03, 2022 – Valeo will present five major innovations transforming and shaping a cleaner, safer, more autonomous, more connected mobility at this coming CES tech event held in Las Vegas from January 5 to 8, 2022. Never has the industry experienced a combination of such seismic upheavals at the same time. 

Four major changes are taking place: the electrification of vehicles is gaining ground everywhere and is accelerating; assistance (ADAS) is booming; vehicle onboard intelligence is developing rapidly; and lighting is undergoing a profound transformation to offer more and more new features. 

In these four areas, Valeo enjoys both technological and industrial leadership. The Group has invested 11 billion euros in Research and Development over the last five years alone, and at the same time, has built up the appropriate production facilities. Valeo takes a holistic technological approach, effectively combining hardware, electronics and software. Valeo brings intelligence into the vehicle so that future generations can live in a more breathable world with safer roads. 

Valeo has anticipated these profound changes. In just over a decade, it resized its operations and redefined its technological focus. From 2009 to 2021, driving assistance sales increased 9-fold, while vehicle electrification sales expanded 26-fold. 

 Today, 94% of Valeo’s sales are derived from technologies that help to reduce CO2 emissions and improve road safety. 

 The transformation is so vast that nearly 60% of the Group’s order intake is for products that didn’t exist three years ago. Valeo will continue to forge ahead in the innovation race.  

The innovations presented at CES 2022 attest that Valeo has scaled up to become a major global mobility player. Its smart technologies, i.e., software, algorithms and artificial intelligence solutions, are no longer just for cars. These technologies can now be fitted on all new forms of mobility, beyond the realm of vehicles, and integrate infrastructure to create new services, invent new travel experiences and help us live healthier lives.
