Valeo presents its technologies designed for customer benefits: faster development, safer driving, improved energy efficiency and new in-vehicle experiences
Valeo leverages AI to transform vehicle development, software and the driving experience
September 30, Paris, France — From October 12 to 18, 2026, Valeo will be at the Paris Motor Show (Hall 5.3, Booth 53A51) to present its latest innovations designed to accelerate the automotive industry’s transformation. As vehicles are increasingly defined by technology and embedded intelligence, Valeo stands out as the key partner capable of scaling cutting-edge technologies for automakers while addressing major challenges for more safety, sustainability, electrification and software integration.
Christophe Périllat, Chief Executive Officer of Valeo, said: “This Paris Motor Show is a vivid illustration of what is happening in our industry today: full technological acceleration. Today, thanks to our AI and software leadership, we are bringing development cycles down to a few months. But acceleration only matters if it translates into technologies for safer, more intelligent, more sustainable, and ultimately more affordable mobility. Valeo technologies will be on our booth, and most of the vehicles exposed across the entire show floor will have ‘Valeo Inside’.”
