Volkswagen Embraces EVs and eMobility - CAR MBS 2018

There’s a lot of new technology trends in the auto industry, like electrified vehicles, connectivity, mobility and autonomy. Matthew Renna, the Vice President of Electro Mobility & Innovation at Volkswagen of America, discuses the company’s strategy for that new technology.

I'm so excited to see what Volkswagen does with electric vehicles over the next decade after their amazing performance at Pikes Peak.

CAR MBS = Center for Automotive Research, Management Briefing Seminars. By the look of the crowd the average age seems to be 45+, I think it would be wise for the industry to encourage attendees to bring along younger members of companies and interns so a more robust multigenerational dialog can take place. In other words, the old fogies need to listen to the upcoming generation of car users and find out where they are going to spend their transportation dollars.

Exciting strategy of.. we were caught cheating which lead to killing human beings and lied about it over and over till we couldn’t keep lying.. now our sales are tanking... so we’re going to finally join the EV future because diesel is basically dead and we have no other rational choice. So inspiring. I loved my Audi’s for years... not again.. not for a long time.. if they ever actually come out with a serious apology and some real reparations for the damage they’ve caused in pursuit of nothing but profit, I’ll only reconsider then

It would have been intresting to ask him about the rough timeline in which volkswagen will release fully electric vehicles to market, but nice short q&a anyway!

Volvo is stupid, who wants to spend all day charging? It's better to have bigger batteries so that you always have the range you need and the option to charge infrequently.

BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH from a mainstream automaker that has no idea how it's going to survive selling suppose VW will just lie about how many KW's they have in their battery packs!
