The Age of “Automobility”: How Driverless Vehicles Will Reshape Our World
For more than a century, car companies have taken for granted that vehicles will be driven by people, powered by combustion engines and owned primarily by individuals. These presumptions now are being challenged by a stunning convergence of new technology and innovative business models.
Autonomous electric vehicles deployed in transportation services are ushering-in the age of “automobility” which promises more people greater freedom in how they move around and how they live.
This presentation will review the seeds of the mobility revolution, assess the implications of the age of “automobility”, and highlight how to position for this inevitable transformation.
