The International Automotive Federation (IAF) has entered a structured and forward-moving development phase for its AutoSafe™ Vehicle Safety & Integrity programme. Following a period of internal preparation and alignment, the federation is now progressing through clearly defined planning milestones.
AutoSafe™ is being developed as a comprehensive and unified framework covering vehicle safety, digital integrity, battery safety and long-term durability. The programme is designed to support consistent evaluation principles while remaining adaptable to future technological and regulatory developments.
Current efforts are focused on establishing methodological foundations, clarifying evaluation logic and shaping early structural models that will guide subsequent technical work. Internal working groups are being aligned to ensure coherence across different safety and integrity domains.
IAF emphasises that this phase is not about rapid conclusions, but about building a robust and transparent structure that can sustain long-term credibility. The federation views this stage as essential to the future integrity and relevance of the AutoSafe™ programme.
Further updates will be shared as AutoSafe™ advances into additional planning stages, including broader consultation activities and preparatory pilot work.
In Summary
- AutoSafe™ development is actively progressing.
- Planning and methodology are the current focus.
- Core evaluation structures are taking shape.
- Long-term programme integrity is prioritised.
