Summary

Today’s buzz: “Auto makers look into their crystal balls – and their shops – to get an idea as to what's fueling the car of 2025. Most car makers agree: The next 10 years will see more change in the auto business than the last 20” (theglobeandmail.com). “Self-driving cars…once found only in science fiction, are about to become a reality” (Goldman Sachs, 2016). “When you think of a flying car one might think of The Jetsons. The company Terrafugia is working to get its flying car off the ground by 2025” (Business Insider, 2016). “In any major city in the world, you’ll find smog…mostly from cars, SUVs, and pickup trucks…things are about to get better.…the car won’t disappear, it will just be powered by different energies, and in some cases, take on new shapes” (thoughtco.com). We’ll ask the experts for their take: Meg Divitto, Divitto Design Group; Mike Lackey, SAP; Marty Groover, C5MI; and Bill Newman, SAP. Join us for Fasten Your Seatbelt: Ready for Your Future Ride? – Part 2.
