7. Believes firmly that this industry is an essential driver for technological innovation and an important multiplier of growth; considers that maintaining a high level of innovation is vital for the industry to keep its leading edge in sustainability and technology and to promote employment and support for companies, including SMEs, so as to enhance international competitiveness; considers that clean-car designs would reduce Europe’s energy dependence on third countries; stresses that public transport networks, traffic mobility and the technical breakthroughs of smart cities such as hybrid and zero-emission vehicles are powerful levers for boosting the competitiveness of the European automotive sector; highlights the decisive role that ...[+++] public procurement can play in this regard, when used as a strategic tool for industrial policy; calls on the Commission and the Member States to step up their cooperation and efforts to consolidate Europe’s leading position in international standard setting, thus ensuring that the EU can maintain a technological lead on world markets; stresses the vital importance of a clear-cut and stable legal and taxation framework to encourage investment in the automobile sector;

· Promote awareness of the availability of alternatives to individual conventional transport (drive less, walk and cycle, car sharing, park drive, intelligent ticketing etc.)

9. Developing clean technologies for cars and construction. To support innovation in manufacturing, in particular in the construction industry and the automobile sector which have recently seen demand plummet as a result of the crisis and which also face significant challenges in the transition to the green economy, the Commission proposes to launch 3 major partnerships between the public and private sectors: In the automobile sector, a 'European green cars initiative', involving research on a broad range of technologies and smart energy infrastructures essential to achieve a breakthrough in the use of renewable and non-polluting energy ...[+++]sources, safety and traffic fluidity.

The greatest potential in the application of Information and Communication Technologies in solving transport problems is offered by the Intelligent Vehicle Safety Systems, which use advance ICT for providing new, intelligent solutions for improving road safety.

The report concludes that the greatest potential in the application of ICT in solving road transport safety problems is offered by the Intelligent Vehicle Safety Systems, which use advanced ICT for providing new, intelligent solutions which address together the involvement of and interaction between the driver, the vehicle and the road environment.

(8) Whereas the Commission has implemented a European programme on air quality, road traffic emissions, fuels and engines technologies (the Auto/Oil Programme) with a view to fulfilling the requirements of Article 4 of Directive 94/12/EC; whereas the Commission has implemented the APHEA Project which estimates the external costs of air pollution by motor vehicles at 0,4 % of EU GNP, and further assessments conclude that the external costs amount to 3 % of EU GNP, whereas the Commission has implemented the 'Car of Tomorrow` Action Plan which strives to contribute to the promotion of the 'Car of Tomorrow` which will be clean, safe, energy efficient and 'intelligent`; whereas ...[+++] this action plan enforces Community action promoting R D leading to clean cars and whereas neither the R D efforts undertaken in the framework of the 'Car of Tomorrow` Action Plan nor EU competitiveness in automobile R D should be jeopardised; whereas the European motor vehicle and oil industries have carried out the European Programme on Emissions, fuels and Engine Technologies (EPEFE) to determine the contribution which can be made both by future vehicles and the fuels which propel them; whereas the Auto/Oil and EPEFE programmes strive to ensure that proposals for Directives on polluting emissions seek the best solutions for both the citizen and for the economy; whereas the need for Community action for the forthcoming Steps 2000 and 2005 has become urgent; whereas it has become apparent that a further improvement of car emission technology is necessary with a view to achieving air quality in the year 2010 as described in the Commission communication on the Auto/Oil Programme;
