A View On The Vehicle Of The Future

This discussion does not delve into technical aspects or propose new components or architectural changes. Instead, it emphasizes the need to rethink how we use vehicles and consider alternative functionalities beyond mere transportation. Currently, a significant portion of a vehicle's costly resources—approximately 2 tons—is vastly underutilized for more than 90% of its operational life. This inefficiency prompts a call to explore innovative approaches that could transform this idle capacity into opportunities for new business models. By leveraging these insights, we can potentially unlock greater economic and environmental value from automotive resources in the future.Takeaways from the Talk:
