Q. What are the major trends in infrastructure and mobility across the globe for different automotive segments?
A. Across the globe, the integration of electric and autonomous vehicles is shaping the future of mobility for both passenger and commercial vehicles. Electric Vehicle (EV) infrastructure, such as charging stations, and autonomous driving technologies is advancing rapidly in Western nations, supported by Intelligent Traffic Systems (ITS) and dedicated commercial corridors. In India, government-led expansions in road networks and urban planning initiatives are paving the way for modern mobility solutions.
As infrastructure scales up, strategic adoption of EV technology and automated systems will play a pivotal role in shaping India’s mobility landscape. IoT devices, radar sensors, navigation controls, monitoring and surveillance systems, and more such advanced solutions are growing in the industry.
The recently concluded TrafficInfratech Expo jointly organised by Messe Frankfurt Trade Fairs India and VIS Group also displayed several advanced tech-based solutions and emphasised India’s unique needs— where strong policies, especially around rule compliance, are essential to harness these advancements effectively.
Q. In your extensive experience, have technological advancements and safety standards led to the expected improvements in global infrastructure and at the desired pace?
