Showcasing convergence technologies in autonomous driving, electric vehicle charging, and the metaverse Lotte Group's first participation, presenting a vision for future mobility Experience the B-type autonomous shuttle without a driver's seat EVSIS ultra-fast megawatt charger supplying high-capacity power
Lotte Innovate announced on the 31st that it participated in the '2025 Japan Mobility Show' held at Tokyo Big Sight, Japan, from October 30 to November 9, showcasing future mobility technologies. This event is one of the world's top five motor shows, along with the Detroit and Geneva Motor Shows, and Lotte Group participated for the first time, presenting the future in the mobility sector.
Lotte Innovate exhibited a B-type autonomous shuttle without a driver's seat, the metaverse platform 'Caliverse,' and an ultra-fast electric vehicle charger at the Lotte Pavilion of the Japan Mobility Show. Notably, the B-type autonomous shuttle, which obtained the first temporary operation permit in Korea in 2021, is currently operating nationwide in Jeju, Gangneung, Gyeongju, Gunsan, and Suncheon. In October last year, it was the first B-type to receive a permit to operate at a speed of 40 km/h, recognizing its technological prowess.
In the autonomous vehicle experience zone, visitors could board the autonomous shuttle and experience virtual autonomous driving through a large LED screen inside, as well as Lotte's metaverse platform 'Caliverse.' Products purchased in the metaverse were delivered directly to visitors by an autonomous delivery robot, showcasing Lotte's mobility ecosystem that combines online and offline.
Additionally, in the mobility technology zone, Lotte Innovate's subsidiary EVSIS displayed an ultra-fast megawatt (MW) electric vehicle charger. This charger, capable of supplying more than 1000 kW of power, was developed for charging electric buses with large-capacity batteries, large electric trucks, ships, and urban air mobility (UAM). It can fully charge a standard electric passenger car (70 kW) in about five minutes.
Lotte Innovate stated, "Future mobility will evolve into an integrated platform where autonomous driving, electric vehicles, and the metaverse are organically connected. Lotte will provide a differentiated mobility experience in the global market by combining innovative technologies and services."
