India Plans Mandatory Vehicle-to-Vehicle Communication in New Cars by 2028
Vehicle-to-Vehicle (V2V) communication enables cars to wirelessly share real-time data like speed, position, and braking, enhancing road safety beyond what Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) can achieve alone. While ADAS relies on onboard sensors to detect hazards within line of sight, V2V allows vehicles to receive warnings about unseen dangers, such as sudden braking ahead. The Indian government plans to mandate V2V technology in new vehicles from October 2028, aiming to complement ADAS and improve accident prevention and connected mobility.
