For the exhibition, Lotte’s booth will be organized around the theme “L.MoVE.” The name is short for “Lotte Mobility Value Enabler” and conveys the idea of a partner that creates new value in the mobility sector and helps its partners grow their businesses. The booth will showcase Lotte’s mobility value chain, encompassing next-generation materials and infrastructure, as well as logistics and services from the participating affiliates.
In the materials sector, Lotte Chemical Corporation will present flame-retardant, lightweight and recycled materials, as well as paint-free design materials. Lotte Infracell and LOTTE Energy Materials will exhibit cathode foil, coated foil and copper foil used in electric vehicle batteries.
LOTTE INNOVATE will focus its exhibition on technologies that connect data from vehicles, roads and cities. It plans to introduce autonomous mobility services, artificial intelligence (AI)-powered smart tolling and next-generation intelligent transport systems (C-ITS).
The companies will also showcase changes in their logistics and rental car businesses. Lotte Global Logistics will outline how it plans to build eco-friendly, unmanned logistics systems using hydrogen-powered freight trucks, autonomous freight trucks and automated loading and unloading technologies. LOTTE rental Co., Ltd. will present a digital short-term car rental model featuring contactless check-in and self-service key boxes, and announce plans to enter Okinawa, Japan.
A Lotte representative said, “This event is an opportunity to showcase Lotte’s competitiveness in the mobility business to global companies and seek practical collaboration opportunities,” adding, “We will expand global partnerships based on each affiliate’s technological and business capabilities and continue to identify new growth opportunities in the future mobility sector.”
