Promoted by the 5G Automotive Association (5GAA), which recently demonstrated the technology in Atlanta in the United States and in Malaga, Spain, C-V2X is designed to enable different road users to communicate with one another thanks to the performance and low latency offered by 5G.

In the long term, the idea is to be able to make connected cars communicate with one another, but also with motorcyclists, cyclists, pedestrians and various kinds of road infrastructure, all equipped with dedicated sensors.
