Valeo will showcase its latest innovations at the Beijing International Automotive Exhibition (Auto China 2026), held from April 24 to May 3, 2026, at Booth #B2D01 in the China International Exhibition Center (CIECC).
As the Chinese market transitions from rapid volume expansion to technology expansion, Valeo will deliver cutting-edge technology at "China Speed," reaffirming its role as a strategic partner to all major players in the automotive industry.
Valeo CEO Christophe Périllat stated: "The metaphor 'China is a fitness center' perfectly captures the rapid development of this market. Today, as the Chinese market enters a new phase of 'technology scale-up,' endurance and scale are essential alongside speed. In this hyper-competitive environment, automakers need a partner who can reliably deliver both cutting-edge innovation and smooth mass production capabilities. Leveraging our massive presence in China, which includes 10 R&D centers and over 4,300 engineers, Valeo is leading this transition by providing the most advanced solutions in electrification, ADAS, and intelligent lighting at the required 'China Speed'. Uniquely combining ultimate innovation with manufacturing excellence, Valeo is enhancing its ability to provide safer, smarter, and more sustainable technologies to our partners—both traditional leaders and new players, inside and outside of China."
Details of the technologies Valeo will present at Auto China 2026 are available in the English press kit.
Strategic Innovations for Next-Generation Mobility
At Auto China, Valeo will unveil a portfolio of integrated systems designed at "China Speed." These systems dramatically shorten development cycles to match the pulse of Chinese innovation while maintaining rigorous global safety standards.
● Electrification at "China Speed":
Valeo has set a new global benchmark by moving from concept to mass production at record speed. Both the 5-in-1 "Deep Integration" module and the next-generation dual inverter are slated for mass production starting in 2026. This agility is highlighted by the compact 5-way refrigerant valve, a CES 2026 Innovation Award winner. By consolidating four valves into one, it reduces weight and complexity, thereby optimizing the vehicle's driving range. To propel Software-Defined Vehicles (SDVs), the Predict4Range software optimizes energy management to extend range by up to 24%, while immersion cooling technology serves as the key to unlocking 5C ultra-fast charging (20-80% charge in 12 minutes). By maximizing compactness with the Valeo e-Silent Flow Module, which saves 100mm of space, Valeo is redefining the architecture for highly functional and scalable electrification. Utilizing GaN (Gallium Nitride) and planar transformer technologies with its latest generation of onboard chargers and DCDC converters, Valeo dramatically improves power density, supporting further compactness and efficiency.
● Autonomous Driving and Connected Systems:
As China scales Level 3 and above autonomous driving, Valeo provides the "eyes" essential for this transformation. The Valeo SCALA™ 3 Evo LIDAR, capable of scanning the surrounding environment 25 times per second even through the windshield, is a crucial component for safe autonomous driving. Valeo is also driving the democratization of high-end safety technology with the Smart Safety 360 (VSS360), which supports Highway Navigation on Autopilot (NOA) for the mass market. With Valeo Racer, the company leverages its foundational safety technologies to create new in-car experiences. This immersive XR gaming experience uses real-time vehicle perception data and ADAS sensors to transform the journey into a live gaming arena.
● Redefining Safety and Style:
Valeo is defining next-generation visibility by fusing hardware excellence with software intelligence. The Valeo Group will exhibit a groundbreaking integrated front lighting system for the Xpeng P7, featuring a "Coast-to-Coast Appliqué" where a 1.5-meter edge-to-edge light signature creates a bold and modern aesthetic. Furthermore, in strategic collaboration with Appotronics...
