New at DEKRA Automobil: Used Car Management and Safetyplus.

The heart of the Used Car Management service is the DEKRA Car Operator, an electronic communications tool which provides more transparency and control as the car passes through various stages of the process.

New standards in safety are set by Safetyplus. Safetyplus is the first safety certificate for both vans and their drivers and consists of the components Safetyplus VEHICLE and Safetyplus DRIVER.

Only drivers and vehicles that fulfil the high safety standards set by Safetyplus are awarded this certificate.

Pooling knowledge – utilising synergies.

We have pooled our accident know-how resources so that our customers in the automotive industry can derive even more eff ective benefit from our expert knowledge.

The DEKRA Competence Centre consolidates the findings of the DEKRA Crash Test Centre in Neumünster, the DEKRA Technology Centre based in Klettwitz and the DEKRA Accident Research Unit in Stuttgart. These test centres are equipped with the most advanced testing technology, which ensures that our customers benefit from our expert knowledge in concentrated form. The findings compiled from countless crash tests can now immediately flow into the product development of vehicle manufacturers and system suppliers.

The future belongs to those who think one step ahead.

The developments in the automotive industry relating to alternative drive concepts can no longer be ignored. Rising fuel prices are making natural gas and hybrid-powered vehicles increasingly interesting propositions.

DEKRA is prepared for the future. Where the safety and economy of alternative drive concepts are concerned, private and commercial customers always have a competent partner in DEKRA.

How expertise and commitment save lives.

The charter for road traffic safety is a campaign launched by the EU that seeks to halve the number of accident victims in Europe by 2010. Appeals made to all road users to act responsibly, combined with the expansion of the road infrastructure, are intended to achieve this goal. Along with numerous European associations, municipalities and car manufacturers, DEKRA was one of the first to sign the charter and commit itself to initiating a draft of measures.

These include, for example, the “Safety requires brains” campaign, the technical paper entitled “Technical safety on the road and international strategies
to avoid accidents”, the “Safe Bus Operation” certificate and the development of collision avoidance systems.
