NVH strategies for

Global Competitiveness

In recent years, the automotive industry has experienced significant changes. Global economic developments, geopolitical uncertainty, increasing international competition, and changing customer expectations are challenging manufacturers to reduce development times and costs even more, while maintaining high quality and performance.

At the same time, the ongoing transition toward electrification, digitalization and new mobility concepts is reshaping how vehicles are developed, experienced, and evaluated. This includes a growing focus on digital tools, perception-driven design, and in-cabin acoustic comfort. The ISNVH 2026 congress offers a platform for technical and scientific exchange on methods, tools, and concepts that can help the NVH community to face these challenges.
