Theme IV: Acceleration of Electrification & Autonomous Driving

Stringent emission regulations and less dependence on oil are the key drivers for electrification. Most of the countries around the world are planning to ban internal combustion engine vehicles by 2040 that has led to the acceleration of electric vehicle growth. OEMs are planning to introduce electric vehicles across different vehicle segments by creating dedicated electric vehicle platforms and speed up the development of electric vehicles. Some of the key challenges for EV introduction such as battery costs, charging infrastructure, range anxiety are being addressed by all the stakeholders in the value chain such as OEMs, Suppliers, Federal and Local Governments. The introduction of electric vehicles are also providing opportunities to start-ups and creating new business models such as battery leasing, swapping. COVID 19 has had a very low impact on the growth of electric vehicles since every stakeholder is looking at it as a long term growth strategy. This session will discuss trends related to COVID impact on electric vehicles market, evolution of new business models, start-ups emerging in this space and also OEMs electric vehicle platform strategies.
