The Centre for Connected & Autonomous Vehicles (CCAV) is to invest up to 拢30 million, and Innovate UK 拢5 million, in industry-led research and development projects on connected and autonomous vehicles.
Projects need to come up with technical solutions for connected and autonomous vehicle features that provide real-world benefits to users. This includes how these vehicles will work as part of a wider transport system. We are seeking proposals where the commercial benefit is clear.
This competition is in 4 streams.

Streams 2, 3 and 4 will fund feasibility studies and industrial research and development projects on connected and autonomous vehicles.
We expect projects to range in size from total costs of 拢250,000 to 拢5 million. Projects should last between 12 and 30 months.
All projects must be collaborative and a business must lead the project.
