Sustainable Mobility and Transportation Symposium 2026
Building on the success of the previous two editions, we are pleased to invite researchers, scholars, professionals, and enthusiasts once again to the third Sustainable Mobility and Transportation Symposium, an interdisciplinary scientific conference organized by the Audi Hungaria Faculty of Engineering and the Vehicle Industry Research Center of Széchenyi István University. The conference is dedicated to exploring the latest advancements and innovations in the field of automotive technology and transportation, and aims to bring together experts from various domains to foster collaboration, share insights, and shape the future of mobility.
New Research Results Presented for the Future of Mobility – Sustainable Mobility and Transportation Symposium Successfully Held
On 8 October 2026, Széchenyi István University hosted the Sustainable Mobility and Transportation Symposium (SMTS2026) for the third time. Jointly organized by the Audi Hungaria Faculty of Automotive Engineering and the Vehicle Industry Research Center, with support from Robert Bosch Kft., the scientific event once again provided a professional forum for presenting the latest research results in the automotive industry and transportation.
The conference program placed particular emphasis on research related to sustainable, intelligent, and safe mobility. Presenters introduced new scientific results in areas including artificial intelligence and control engineering, autonomous vehicles, vehicle diagnostics, electromobility, mechatronics, logistics, vehicle development, and manufacturing technologies.
The wide range of topics presented reflected the diversity of current developments in the automotive and mobility sectors. Research areas included intelligent and automated vehicle systems, advanced sensing and control solutions, electric powertrains and diagnostic methods, as well as innovative manufacturing, transportation, and logistics technologies.
The Sustainable Mobility and Transportation Symposium also plays an important role in making scientific results accessible to the international professional community. Research presented at the conference will be published in internationally indexed scientific publications, further increasing the international visibility of automotive and mobility research conducted at Széchenyi István University.
The third SMTS also provided an excellent opportunity for professional dialogue among representatives of different research fields and for strengthening cooperation between the university, the scientific community, and industry partners. The research and development directions presented at the event may contribute to the long-term development of future transportation and mobility solutions.
