EFFEREST will increase the competitiveness of Europe, strengthening industrial leadership in key digital, enabling, and emerging technologies to make EVs more attractive for the worldwide mass market.

EFFEREST targets a decisive leap forward in the novel use of data to achieve energy efficient electric vehicle (EV) designs, matching enhanced user acceptance with efficient vehicle operation. The focus of this work are the systems and components that manage cabin comfort and powertrain performance. These systems will be improved not only individually, but linked together, so that the engineering trade-offs to improve efficiency and affordability will be made in the interest of fulfilling the user’s needs.
