Welcome to the Web site of the United States Council for Automotive Research, an umbrella organization for collaborative research among Chrysler LLC, Ford Motor Company and General Motors Corporation.
About USCAR The United States Council for Automotive Research (USCAR) was founded in 1992. Its goal is to further strengthen the technology base of the U.S. auto industry through cooperative research and development. Its main focus is to: Create, support and direct U.S. cooperative research and development to advance automotive technologies.
Be responsive to the needs of our environment and society and include the appropriate public and private stakeholders.
USCAR is composed of a number of specialized groups that focus on specific research areas. These research teams work to: accelerate technical development,
provide a common voice to the supply base,
increase the value of research investments,
improve quality
and reduce the cost for noncompetitive technologies and activities.
These goals are often accomplished through partnerships with various stakeholders including the federal government, educational institutions and suppliers. USCAR demonstrates the power of collaboration. It enables the U.S. automakers to do great things efficiently and effectively. Individually, these same tasks would be far more difficult, potentially redundant, and in many instances, impossible to achieve as quickly by individual companies.
