According to carmakers, in 2025, 30% of new cars could be electric. If the USA and Europe invest heavily in new technologies, the importance of oil in the industry could be reduced.

its worse than this. Auto makers like BMW and others will begin making vehicles with carbon fibers where weight to fuel ratios guarantee another 30 to 40 % drop in demand.

Compounding is a function of busting through inertia...

Look for an entirely new auto / transport industry, invigorated by the inertia present in todays failing model.

GM is now bought and paid for, the goal is in part to sustain inertia....for the various legacy affiliations.....

there is a huge new opportunity for new transport solutions, greatest invigoration of entreprenuership in 40 years....

hundreds of new brands...some will become the next F & GM because they counter program inertia.

claims from GM about new stuff...must be verified....Government Motors is an overlay that cross purposes evolution......
