Response to Specifications for the provision of cooperative intelligent transport systems (C-ITS)

8 Feb 2019

Groupe PSA, the second largest vehicle manufacturer in Europe with more than 3 million vehicles sold in Europe in 2018, welcomes the opportunity to provide feedback on the draft delegated regulation on specifications for the provision of C-ITS. Groupe PSA is highly supportive of the objective of the European Commission to improve safety on European roads through direct vehicle-to-vehicle, vehicle-to-infrastructure, vehicle-to-network communications, but also to enable vehicle-to-pedestrian (V2P) & cyclists applications (29% of EU road fatalities in 2017). Setting up a regulatory framework in the connected vehicle area, where the pace of innovation is very high, is a complex task that should be done carefully, at the right time, being performance oriented, and fully respecting technology neutrality : - The choice of the technology should be left to the OEMs that have to take into account different criteria including cost, performance and customer expectations. - The current regulatory draft, while imposing interoperability, de facto locks in one technology (ITS-G5) at an early stage whereas: o Many of the C-ITS priority services listed in Annex I, have already been implemented using 3G or 4G (LTE) cellular networks (traffic jams, weather conditions, road works, etc.) without the need for a specific regulation. o The alternative short range cellular technology is very close to market readiness and has a path towards full 5G, which will be the only one sustainable for a second step of C-ITS with advanced and autonomous driving use cases (Remote driving, cooperative sensing, cooperative maneuver, etc.). o C-V2X deployment is already upcoming in China (baseline technology) and in the USA, as a precursor to 5G, showing clearly a worldwide adoption to come. o The ITS-G5 deployment will have the consequence that OEMs will need to embed two different chipsets in the same module. This will lead to a significant additional cost for our customers and slow down the deployment of ITS services. At this stage, PSA is convinced that 5G, a worldwide standard, is the most promising technology with the widest ecosystem to provide the highest societal benefits. If ITS-G5 is imposed, Europe risks to be on an isolated technology path, without any future, compared to all other major automotive markets. February 8, 2019.
