WHAT MAKES A LARGE-SCALE DEMONSTRATION POSSIBLE?

Successful CCAM demonstrations depend on more than advanced vehicles and digital technologies.

They also require supportive regulations, suitable infrastructure, public trust, and integration into real transport services. The framework above illustrates the key readiness dimensions that Pre-LSDemo uses to evaluate future demonstration opportunities across Europe.

PRE‑LSDEMO FOLLOWS SIX STRATEGIC OBJECTIVES:

Pre-LSDemo is built around six strategic building blocks that together prepare the foundation for future large-scale CCAM demonstrations across Europe

1

Societal Readiness Framework

Creating a structured approach to understand societal expectations, concerns, and needs.
Developing a practical framework that helps future CCAM demonstrations integrate inclusion, trust, fairness, accessibility, and stakeholder perspectives throughout the planning and evaluation process.
2

Stakeholder Forum & Co-Creation

Connecting key voices from across the European mobility ecosystem.
Bringing together industry, authorities, operators, researchers, user organisations, and civil society to exchange knowledge, validate concepts, and shape future demonstration activities.
3

Methods & Evaluation Tools

Building on Europe's existing CCAM knowledge and experience.
Collecting, analysing, and harmonising methodologies, testing procedures, data concepts, and evaluation approaches to support future large-scale demonstrations.
4

Challenges & Enablers

Identifying the factors that influence successful deployment.
Analysing societal, technical, regulatory, infrastructure, and operational barriers and enablers across mobility domains to support effective demonstration planning.
5

Demonstration Readiness

Assessing promising use cases, technologies, and future test sites.
Evaluating readiness across mobility domains and defining the foundations for future large-scale CCAM demonstrations throughout Europe.
6

Outreach & Engagement Strategy

Supporting awareness, acceptance, and long-term impact.
Developing communication and engagement approaches that help future demonstrations connect with diverse audiences and strengthen societal readiness for CCAM.
