Faurecia has announced that it will reveal its breakthrough technologies and services for cleaner cities and the cockpit of the future at the three-day (January 9-12, 2018) Consumer Electronic Show 2018 at Las Vegas, USA. This will be the first time that the global supplier will be participating at the world's largest electronics fair. 

Faurecia says it will reveal major disruptive innovations for a personalised and safe on-board experience in the versatile, connected and predictive cockpit of the future. 

The company plans to demonstrate its role as a leading systems integrator for changing mobility needs and enhance user experience, together with the rapid expansion of its innovation ecosystem through partnerships, acquisitions and investment in start-ups.
