Smart cities won’t mean the end of car ownership says Hyundai
As cars become electrified and connected, there’s another debate emerging. Once vehicles can reliably drive autonomously at Level 5, should we continue to own them? Some visions of the Smart City of the future foresee public transport and self-driving taxi services as taking over personal car ownership entirely.
