From Self-Driving Cars to Shipping, Our Mobility Is at Inflection Point

McKinsey report: “Mobility’s Second Great Inflection Point.”McKinsey​Stefan Knupfer​

By Jason Middleton

If you read the headlines or glance at the trade magazines, it seems like self-driving cars will start landing in our driveways and parking buildings in the next few weeks. 

Well, maybe not that quickly, but sooner than we thought. It's somewhere between Tesla CEO Elon Musk's whimsical claim of a million autonomous cars next year and ... never, as a few analysts have written.

I land on 20-30 as a date where the tipping point will hit the road, so to speak - when the majority of transport will be autonomous. 

That's not a rando year - a new report from McKinsey research taps 20-30 as well. 

So this week we host Stefan Knupfer, Senior Partner McKinsey and Company. Their recent research project is titled “Mobility’s Second Great Inflection Point.”
