Vehicle design and manufacturing

Transport vehicle design, development and manufacturing (VDM) is a collaborative, integrated and complex set of processes and tools that consider the whole vehicle life cycle and is a key element for the competitiveness of the EU transport industry.

Continuous research and innovation as well as organizational issues are therefore necessary to achieve marketable transport vehicles with shorter development times and time-to-market. The global trend is towards seamless integration of digital and physical vehicle design and manufacturing processes, tools and infrastructures.

The Strategic Transport Research and Innovation Agenda (STRIA) Roadmap for Vehicle Design and Manufacturing aims to develop successful marketable transport vehicles with shorter development times.
