Connected Motorcycle Consortium

Connected Motorcycle Consortium: first demo event 


The Connected Motorcycle Consortium (CMC) will organise an event in September 2023 to demonstrate several interactions between a car and a motorcycle - interactions where C-ITS applications or Advanced Driver Assistant Systems will help to mitigate the chance of a collision. 

As a collective effort between manufacturers, suppliers, researchers and associations, the CMC has been working towards integrating Powered Two-Wheelers into the future landscape of connected mobility. 

The CMC journey began with the launch of the 'Basic Specification' in 2020. Since then, the CMC has progressed further and will show results of its research in a demo event at the Dekra Technology Centre at the Lausitzring racetrack in northeastern Germany in September 2023. 


"Alongside world-leading motorcycle manufacturers such as BMW, Honda, Ducati, Harley-Davidson, KTM, Suzuki and Yamaha, prominent carmakers including BMW, Honda, Lamborghini and VW will also be participating in the event. The invited guests will have the opportunity to experience the systems live by taking a first-row seat as passengers in one of the cars". 

The event will also provide a platform for presenting key findings from the Consortium’s accident research, insights into rider behaviour and detailed information about safety applications. ACEM is an associate member of CMC.
