While the automation and the electrification of cars at first appear as separate technology fields, their interdependencies provide synergetic and complementing effects at both the layers of technology and the applications. In addition to describing those effects, this chapter analyses how the integrated view of both paths is covered by industrial and academic research and innovation strategies, public funding programmes and collaborative projects in the European Union and its member states, taking Germany and Austria as examples. Furthermore, international benchmarks from outside Europe are presented, notably from the U.S, China, Japan and South Korea, and some future prospects are given. This chapter summarizes and concludes the activities of Task 29 „Electrified, Connected and Automated Vehicles“ of the Technology Collaboration Programme Hybrid and Electric Vehicles (HEV-TCP) of the International Energy Agency (IEA), and reports on some outcomes of EU-funded Coordination and Support Actions in the domain of smart and sustainable road mobility.
