To ensure road safety, all new types of electric and hybrid vehicles in the European Union (EU) must be equipped with an "Acoustic Vehicle Alert System" (AVAS for short) from July 1, 2019. In particular, these vehicles must emit a sound at low speeds or when reversing to warn other road users. KENDRION has developed a complete, ready-to-use AVAS solution, the "PHANTONE platform", which can be easily installed in electric vehicle designs. For creative sound design, KENDRION offers an intuitive sound designer software.
