Scenes from the city: Electric wonderland

A stream of electric vehicles silently slips by you and you realise the future has already arrived.

It’s not fully formed but it’s here. China has become the world’s largest auto market, impacting everything from car design to building cities optimised for self-driving cars.

Every major auto-company is sprinting into the future by re-tooling, re-thinking and re-imagining for an electric, semi-self-driving future as they become software companies and innovators in energy, safety and on-the-go entertainment and education.

Our first true metaverse will be inside automobiles where we already have screens, voice, augmented reality, navigation and next-generation entertainment systems.

We don’t have to strap on a helmet to live in a true blend of the real and virtual worlds.

We just have to step into our new cars.

Buckle up!
