Automobiles have evolved and not evolved at the same time. I remember a leading automobile company's ad that proudly showcased the changing keys of the brand in the last 25 years or so...However, in my opinion, all the evolution has been more or less cosmetic and short term
But has the automobile industry really innovated to survive in the long term?
Ever since time immortal, everyone knew that the fossil fuels have a limited life. It has taken the earth millions of years to produce what we consume in less than a year. So it was never really sustainable.
But do we have any alternatives yet? The industry focuses on self-driven cars and big, comfortable cars but do we have the fuel source to drive then economically without affecting the environment in the long run?
The automobiles are still trying to give you a better on road experience, but have they thought of making automobiles that fly? or float? or do a combination of two or three different modes?
Why can't automobiles find fuels from plain air? or water? and release some oxygen as exhaust?
actually turn the environment better?
Why can't other chemicals found in abundance replace fossil fuels?
I think its time for the sector to think of some revolutionary innovations that can totally change the way we commute and fuel our vehicles. Else, we might be using them soon but as smart horse or stylish bullock carts....
These are my thoughts and feelings in my personal capacity. My present and past employers and my associations that I am part of have nothing to do with this blog and views.
