The Safety Supplier
Continental Automotive Systems (CAS) is a leading technology
partner in the global automotive industry, delivering
outstanding systems, components and engineering services
for vehicle safety, comfort and powertrain performance.
CAS includes two major operations: the electronics specialist,
Continental Temic, and Continental Teves, one of the
world’s leading manufacturers of electronic and
hydraulic brake, stability and chassis control systems,
electronic air suspension systems and sensors.
To maximize the performance of our technology team,
our operations are organized into customer-oriented
and project-oriented business units. Our Active Passive
Integration Approach or APIA Project is dedicated to
networking active and passive vehicle safety. It brings
together and leverages many products and technologies
within our "Electronic Brake and Safety Systems"
unit.
The goal of this project is to develop a vehicle that
prevents crashes and injuries. This is a visionary concept,
but it's already well on its to becoming reality. In
2003, at the Frankfurt International Auto Show, Continental
presented a technology proto-type with functioning APIA
and sub-systems ready for manufacturing. The use of
this revolutionary technology is already within reach.
Together with our customers, we are building a brighter
automotive future - because we supply safety!
