Hey, World: Where Are Our Vehicles Taking Us Over the Next Several Years?
And what OPPORTUNITIES might that offer us as business owners, investors, employees, freelancers, entrepreneurs and consumers?
Let's face it. Most all of us use cars, trucks, and vans to get from one place to another. So it's quite important to know where the automotive manufacturing industry is going, right? That's why we've got a FANTASTIC guest expert on Looking Forward today. He's Doug Betts, president of J.D. Power's Automotive Division. Doug's experience and perspectives are GLOBAL in scope, and also take into account his former senior executive positions at Apple, Chrysler, Toyota, and Nissan.
Listen as Doug speaks about such things as (1) how the auto manufacturing industry has evolved over the past several decades, (2) the different ways in which vehicles are sold around the globe today, (3) how COVID-19 has affected the auto industry, (4) what changes we are likely to see in how vehicles are manufactured and sold, and (5) where the greatest opportunities lie, as these changes take a stronger grip on the industry.
Pay close attention, too, to what Doug and J.D. Power have learned is the BIGGEST issue consumers now have with their vehicles. Spoiler Alert: It is NOT malfunctions! J.D. Power should know. For over 50 years they've been surveying hundreds of thousands of vehicle owners about their satisfaction with the purchases they've made, and the service they've received.
