Electric vehicles are going mainstream – it’s not just the early adopters who want them. And, more and more mainstream automakers have introduced, or will shortly introduce, new EV models of their luxury marques. It’s important, however, that the wants and needs of the luxury car buyer aren’t forgotten in this transition. And what do…

The automotive industry is changing, and the automotive assembly plant is transforming with it. Not only are car manufacturers building different types of vehicles (electric vs. internal combustion) and different models, but the way they’re building them is changing. A key component of automotive assembly plant makeovers is automated guided vehicles (AGVs) specially designed for…

Wireless charging changes how, when, and where EVs will “fill up” – and makes charging as easy as park, and charge. This paper discusses the paradigm shift for today’s EV drivers and why DCFC is not a practical or realistic solution for a vast majority of them. It explains how wireless, distributed charging will make…
