Hardly any other industry is after decades of prosperity well in such upheaval as the automotive industry. Combustion engines had specifically in Germany such an important segment for decades firmly in control, and brought it with him that often only functional innovations and mechanical subtleties were spawned in an otherwise well-structured environment. It was about smaller innovations in an established piece of technology, which in its design became more complex, but not in its basic orientation. But the wind has started in the so well-heeled automotive industry for quite some time to turn and thereby unleashed a wave of upheavals with partly different orientation. Under headings such as “mobility” discusses the sector of car-sharing approaches to rebuilding the transport, while the most significant innovators role belongs to the electric car in the automotive sector these days.

In particular, Elon Musks electric car manufacturer Tesla stock market chart show the Model S is currently in the process with its Tesla, agree the market on a revolution that heralded a long time, these days enjoys maximum attention. The electric car from Palo Alto has been demonstrated impressively that electric vehicles are now suitable for everyday use and lifted the debate on e-mobility to a new level. A level at which Germany has not arrived yet in many ways.

Not for nothing it was also the much-publicized power struggle with VW patriarch Ferdinand Piech between companies and CEO Martin Winterkorn to those very sustainability of the automotive industry. While Tesla’s foray adding the auto companies from one side in the area of ​​E-Mobility, build Silicon Valley giants like Google stock market chart show with self-propelled “robot car” on the other side of the current innovation spectrum pressure on.

Especially on rural roads and highways offer the computerized vehicles of search engine giant as some advantage, and the first assessment of this ambitious project seems even this relatively promising to. Already in 2020 wants the Internet company to sell its first self-driving cars and therefore pursues show a similarly ambitious plan as Daimler stock market chart, which may test in Nevada, more recently, autonomous driving trucks.
