The automotive world has come a long way. Self-driving cars divide the masses, while technological aids babysit even the most unskilled drivers. Nearly every automaker has an eco-friendly model. So, what’s next for one of the most lucrative international businesses?
Concepts and vehicular visions have always driven brands further, sometimes into profitable territory and other times left behind in the sketchbooks of automotive designers. In the year 2019, industry experts predict we’ll continue to see revivals of old nameplates, renewed and redesigned with a modern touch, new forms of creations that have successfully crossed into reality, and improvements upon current models that have historically performed well.
Cars stepping onto the scene in 2019 and into the 2020s will surely follow the trend of crossover SUVs and hybrid/electric vehicles. Striking an odd balance between dynamic platforms that pride themselves on being versatile and those that wish to reduce their carbon footprint in a petrol-prohibition mindset, the landscape of the future favors those who prioritize both in their lineup.
