7 Global Megatrends strongly influence the future of mobility Climate change Urbanization Demographic change Spend less energy in total for mobility Utilize sustainable power source for mobility High traffic density (commercial vs. private transportation) Hurt less people through accidents Safely extend mobility of elderly people Zero Emission by EV Intelligent mobility through, telematics and Smart Grid integration Zero Accidents by stability control and predictive ADAS systems New kind of mobility concepts mandatory Page 7

8 Zero Emission can be achieved with electric vehicles E-Mobility is the most efficient way to become independent from fossil fuels in road transportation, because Sustainable power can be produced in many ways, but producing liquid fuel in a sustainable way is not possible even for today s fleets. Furthermore, E-Mobility will support the expansion of renewable energy, if the car s battery is used as stationary storage (bidirectional) Page 8 6/20/2011

liquid fuel in a sustainable way is not possible even for today s fleets.

9 Intelligent Mobility means that the vehicle becomes a part of a greater service network Driven by socio economic trends, most of future business models will be based on new services where the electric vehicle is one player between many others: Seamless Mobility Optimization of traffic flow Stabilizing the power grid Location Based Services Page 9 6/20/2011

10 Zero Accidents becomes attractive if safety is combined with comfort Autonomous driving is the major pillar for getting close to Zero Accidents wanted by legislators and insurances. But Zero Accidents in itself is nothing customers want to spend too much money for, because it is not very exciting. Solution Autonomous driving is a comfort function and thus can be experienced by the driver as a valuable add on. Additionally, it could the basis and starting point for Zero Accidents.
