As a new era of transportation begins to evolve, discussions surrounding the future of mobility and its implications for drivers are fast gaining traction. To build the pathways essential for future success, it's key to extend our perspective beyond the initial years of the next decade, delving into the transformations ahead that will reshape mobility.
These transformations will undoubtedly influence both fleets and drivers, impacting businesses of all shapes and sizes across the UK, as we embark on the future of the driving experience.
Exploring the future of driving
A recent gathering of thought leaders, held at the prestigious Goodwood Festival of Speed, and sponsored by AA Business Services, saw discussions tackle ‘The Future of Driving: Unlocking Possibilities'.
The panel featuring saw the following key take-outs emerge.
Electrification isn't enough to decarbonise transport on its own
While we must acknowledge the pivotal role electrification will play in the decarbonisation of transport, it's evident that tackling carbonisation requires a wider scope. Facilitating the overhaul of energy networks is also critical for transformation.
The role of investment and policy in driving global leadership
Provided the right investment and policy drivers can be put in place, the UK has the potential to emerge as a leading global pioneer in the world of mobility. We're certainly highly capable of crafting well thought-out initiatives that deeply resonate with the public to drive future change.
Collaboration is the catalyst for accelerating progress
The rate of progress required hinges on developing stakeholder synergy, especially among diverse audiences. Collaboration is rapidly emerging as the conduit that will ensure rapid advancement toward shared goals.
Driving demand for change is necessary
Cultivating a desire among customers to actively demand action, as opposed to merely adapting under duress, will play a pivotal role in speeding up the process of decarbonisation.
Global learning will also be highly catalytic in driving future change
Drawing from the experiences of ongoing projects across the globe will impart acceleration to UK-based innovation, ensuring the holistic transformation of mobility in the foreseeable future.
