'Formula E' is the world's first all-electric vehicle (EV) racing series, which started in 2014 to accelerate human progress toward sustainability. In recent years, it has attracted attention as the only sport in the world to receive official Net Zero Carbon certification. DS PENSKE is a partnership between PENSKE AUTOSPORT and DS Automobiles. PENSKE AUTOSPORT is one of the founding teams of the ABB FIA Formula E World Championship and has long embraced the shift toward electric vehicles and sustainability.
The Kyocera Group has focused our corporate activities on three pillars of "Living Together": Living together in harmony with society, living together in harmony with the world, and living together in harmony with nature. Kyocera is actively involved in environmental management to achieve the long-term sustainability target of carbon neutrality by the fiscal year 2050.
In addition to supplying various components for EVs, Kyocera is also focusing on developing new automotive-related technologies to support the forthcoming automated driving revolution, such as automotive camera modules that use AI object recognition, haptic feedback displays, and smart vehicle-to-infrastructure technologies. Through these technologies, we aim to provide safer and more comfortable transportation.
