The chapter explores the level of expertise and strategic management of automotive CEOs in areas like autonomous vehicles and electrification. Predictions are made about the future landscape of global automakers and potential acquisitions in the autonomous vehicle industry. Reflecting on past predictions and recent developments, the hosts hint at secret insights while discussing mapping space for vehicles and the unforeseen impacts of COVID on urban transportation.
Every year at CES, the Autonocats invite hundreds of their closest friends in the AV and mobility tech world to a party of epic proportions. Since a party wasn't in the cards this year (thanks for everything, COVID!) we went for the next best thing: a live recording session for our annual predictions episode. If you missed it, don't worry: here, with minimal editing, is that "live" episode featuring a review of last year's predictions and a heaping serving of new predictions for 2021.
