When It Comes To Smart Mobility, All Roads Lead To Ohio

Ohio has long been a premier automotive state, and it continues to lead by investing in technologies that will drive the industry’s future. Today, as the nation’s number one producer of transmissions and engines, Ohio is pioneering a new generation of automotive innovation: smart mobility.

The State of Ohio, JobsOhio, and The Ohio State University recently committed $45 million to fund the Smart Mobility Advanced Research and Test Center (SMART), a new state-of-the art hub for autonomous research and testing. The 540-acre facility represents an expansion of Ohio’s 4,500-acre Transportation Research Center (TRC), the nation’s largest independent automotive proving ground.
