The M15 motorway (Hungarian: M15-ös autópálya) is a Hungarian motorway connects the M1 motorway to Bratislava, the capital of Slovakia. The Hungary-Slovakia border crossing is at Rajka (Hungary) and Čunovo (Slovakia).[1]

Until 2019, the M15 motorway featured grade separation like all motorways, but did not feature four lanes. The M15 has been widened to four lanes by December 2019, a few months ahead of schedule.[2]
