Automobility Founder & CEO Bill Russo contributed to this CNBC report on how the Chinese EV market differs from the approach taken in the rest of the world.
In a nutshell, it is our view that the key difference is that Chinese consumers of electric vehicles are technology shoppers seeking vehicles with smart device features that speak to a more connected and app-oriented population of users.
And such cars are designed not simply to be driven, but to be experienced as a smart device. Every set of eyeballs matter – not just the driver’s.
While his comments were used in the piece, it still came off as a “let’s drive a few cars and talk about them in the way we evaluate traditional driving machines”.
You can do that…but it falls short of highlighting the bigger wave of disruption emanating from China: the advent of the Intelligent Connected Vehicle, which just happens to be powered by electricity (because 140 years is long enough to go with gasoline propulsion).
