The second-ever DVN Interior Workshop in Shanghai was a great success. The quality of the presentations, depth of the discussions, and strong engagement of the Chinese automotive community confirmed the remarkable pace of innovation within the cabin. Our warmest thanks go to all speakers, sponsors and participants who contributed to this momentum.
We look forward to welcoming you in Detroit next week, where these discussions will continue from a North American perspective. Physical and digital interfaces, haptics, functional lighting, smart surfaces, AI, and new cockpit architectures are all on the docket.
This week’s news perfectly illustrates this transformation. From the pared-back Audi A2 e-tron to the multisensory Lexus NX, from the craftsmanship of the Mitsubishi Pajero to the rapid democratization of premium cockpits by BYD and Denza, interiors are becoming more digital, sensory, and adaptable.
After Shanghai and Detroit comes the DVN Interior Workshop in Tokyo on 1 – 2 December. Three regions and three automotive cultures, with one shared question: how can technology be transformed into an interior experience that is relevant, intuitive, and desireable?
