_LG Presents Its Euro NCAP-Aligned Integrated V2X-V2N Safety Platform and Joins 
Global Industry Leaders in Pursuing a Zero-Accident Society_

**News Summary**

 ◦ LG Electronics envisions a new era of cooperative safety where vehicles, people,
   infrastructure and networks work together to anticipate risks and help prevent
   accidents, highlighting this vision at the 2026 ITS World Congress.
 ◦ LG is presenting the world’s first demonstration^(1) of an integrated V2X-V2N
   safety platform aligned with Euro NCAP cooperative safety scenarios, combining
   direct vehicle communications with cloud-based connectivity.
 ◦ LG is joining forces with Toyota and other global mobility leaders in advancing
   the Zero-Accident Society vision through cross-industry collaboration and the
   development of cooperative safety technologies and standards.

SEOUL, South Korea, Oct. 20, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — LG Electronics (LG) is advancing
its vision for the future of mobility safety at the 2026 Intelligent Transport Systems(
ITS) World Congress, taking place from October 19 to 23 in Gangneung, South Korea.
Held under the theme "Beyond Mobility, Connected World," the five-day event brings
together government officials, industry leaders and experts to explore the future
of smart mobility and intelligent transportation systems.

At the congress, LG is highlighting the automotive industry’s shift from a vehicle-
centric safety model toward a cooperative approach to accident prevention, in which
vehicles, people, infrastructure and networks work together. Through technical presentations,
industry sessions and live demonstrations, the company is showcasing connected safety
technologies and their potential to contribute to a safer, more connected mobility
ecosystem.

**Moving Beyond Connectivity to Cooperative SafetyWith the automotive industry accelerating
toward software-defined vehicles (SDVs) and automated driving, safety systems that
rely primarily on onboard sensors face limitations in detecting hazards beyond a
vehicle’s immediate surroundings. Cooperative safety technologies enable vehicles
to exchange real-time information with other road users and surrounding infrastructure,
helping improve the detection of potential hazards.

At the 2026 ITS World Congress, LG is demonstrating how its Soft V2X-based connected
safety platform combines direct vehicle-to-everything (V2X) communications with 
cloud-based vehicle-to-network (V2N) connectivity. Soft V2X is LG’s integrated cooperative
safety platform that connects vehicles, networks and infrastructure in real time.
The demonstration features cooperative safety scenarios aligned with the European
New Car Assessment Programme (Euro NCAP).

Under the theme "Seamless V2X-V2N Intelligence for NCAP-Ready Safety," LG is conducting
live on-road demonstrations near the congress venue from October 20 to 22. Using
a vehicle equipped with LG telematics hardware, V2X-enabled devices and a pedestrian
mobile application, the demonstration illustrates how connected safety technologies
can identify potential risks at obstructed intersections, detect approaching pedestrians
and cyclists, and provide early warnings of hazards beyond the driver’s line of 
sight.

The platform combines Soft V2X-based end-to-end message security, predictive quality
of service (QoS)-enabled intelligent orchestration of V2X and V2N communications,
and a V2N server built on standards from the 5G Automotive Association (5GAA) and
ITS Korea. Together, these technologies enhance the reliability of safety-critical
messages and help maintain service continuity.

By integrating vehicles, communication networks, cloud services and transportation
infrastructure, LG’s solution extends beyond conventional V2X technology. It enables
vehicles and nearby infrastructure to collectively identify and respond to potential
hazards, advancing a cooperative approach to safety beyond traditional vehicle-centric
systems.

**Advancing Global Collaboration Toward a Zero-Accident SocietyBeyond technology
development, LG is joining representatives from Toyota and regional ITS associations
around the world at the "Toward Building a Zero-Accident Society" session to explore
opportunities for global collaboration on reducing traffic accidents and accelerating
the adoption of cooperative-V2X technologies.

During the session, LG will share insights from its global validation initiatives
and showcase cooperative-V2X applications designed to address evolving Euro NCAP
safety requirements. The participants will also make a joint declaration to encourage
broader industry collaboration and advance the development and adoption of cooperative
safety technologies.

The declaration underscores the importance of a cooperative safety framework connecting
vehicles, people, infrastructure and communication networks. Key priorities include
expanding the capabilities of SDV architectures, enhancing over-the-air (OTA)-enabled
services, accelerating cooperative-V2X adoption and strengthening alignment with
NCAP safety frameworks.

**Reinforcing Connected Safety Through Innovation and StandardizationLG is highlighting
the capabilities of its Soft V2X technology through two special sessions focused
on the future of connected mobility, one held on October 19 and the other scheduled
for October 22.

At the "V2X Technologies for Hyper Connected Mobility Service" session, held on 
October 19, LG joined the Korea Electronics Technology Institute (KETI), the Electronics
and Telecommunications Research Institute (ETRI) and Sungkyunkwan University for
a panel discussion on the future of the V2X ecosystem. LG shared its perspective
on advancing V2N and hybrid V2X standardization to facilitate global commercialization.

In the "Global Connectivity Solutions to Support Connected and Automated Driving"
session, scheduled for October 22, LG will present V2N service applications for 
global automakers and outline its approach to advancing connected safety technologies
for future transportation environments. The company will also share its vision for
next-generation safety services powered by AI and digital infrastructure, illustrating
the potential of an integrated mobility ecosystem spanning vehicles, networks, cloud
platforms and transportation infrastructure.

"Reducing traffic accidents requires more than improving the safety performance 
of individual vehicles," said Lee Sang-yong, head of the VS R&D Laboratory at the
LG Vehicle Solution Company. "By connecting vehicles, people, infrastructure and
networks through cooperative safety technologies, LG aims to help build a safer 
mobility ecosystem and contribute to the realization of a Zero-Accident Society."
