Driving the Future of Road Transport

In Finland, road transport has to work – no matter the distance or weather. With a sparse population, long stretches between cities, and harsh winters, the country has built a transport system that’s resilient by necessity. Now, that foundation is rapidly evolving. More vehicles are going electric, more roads are getting connected, and more ideas are being tested, thanks to tight collaboration between tech, government, and industry.

What Finland Offers?

Electric Transport

Electrification is without a doubt the biggest trend in the road transport industry. Finland offers the perfect conditions for moving away from fossil fuels, with affordable renewable electricity, digital and physical infrastructure and industry leaders like Kempower and Virta leading the way.

Managing the Extreme Weather

If it works in Finland, it works anywhere. The country’s four distinct seasons push technology to its absolute limits. Winter, in particular, is something Finnish companies know better than anyone, and it’s where their expertise truly shines. From traffic management to sensors, V2X, and autonomous driving, the solutions developed here have been tested and proven to perform in every possible condition.

Leader in Data & Digitalisation

Fintraffic is building Finland’s open traffic data ecosystem, where the whole transport sector comes together to create smarter, fairer, and more sustainable mobility solutions. The aim is simple: services that are competitive, scalable, and ready for both local and global markets. By combining data, travel and logistics can be made more efficient, safer, and cleaner. At the same time, the ecosystem highlights the power of digitalization in shaping future transport policy and fuels the growth of smart, sustainable businesses with international potential.

Autonomous Driving

Finland is an excellent testbed for autonomous vehicles. The legislation supports trials and pilots, the workforce is highly skilled, and the weather provides a true engineering challenge. It’s no wonder, then, that many Finnish companies are taking on the future of driverless transport.
