It’s an exciting time in the automotive industry. Just as technology has integrated thoroughly into our personal and business lives, so too is it changing the ways that we think about transport. The challenge now is for the car and trucking industries to adapt quickly and stay on top of the evolving trends and tech that are set to alter the dynamics of the way we commute to work and transport goods across national and international borders. Looking at the key technologies that are influencing the future of the automotive industry is key to understanding what changes to expect in 2018, and is the best way to keep yourself aware of the challenges that are yet to have a real impact.
Elon Musk may have sent his old car into space, but that’s a little beyond the majority of most people’s budget. However, it may be time to trade in your older car for something that better reflects the modern thought and money-saving possibilities of what is now available. With options now available that include electric, hybrid, and low-emission vehicles, the cost of running that older model may seem excessive and unnecessary. To gather the funds for a low-emission car, you can get rid of your junk cars at Rusty’s Auto Salvage for cash. Then, use the cash to buy a more sustainable and eco-friendly vehicle. When the average household is spending almost as much on transportation as they are on their housing, it’s obvious that finding ways to lessen that cost are becoming a priority for many families. With savings of up to a third on your petrol costs, electric cars are becoming a more important essential for those wishing to not only lessen their carbon footprint, but also save some significant cash amounts at the same time.
The car industry and automation have a long history. From the first production line by Henry Ford, car-makers have always sought to make the most of the technological ability to create faster and more efficient vehicles at a more rapid pace. With the advent of self-driving technology, this is set to become the next stage of evolution for every form of transport. That’s because automation is no longer restricted to the factories themselves, but to the whole notion of driving.
As corporations like Ford, BMW, and General Motors all spend vast amounts of money on perfecting self-driving technology, this is going to change the way that we drive. While there are valid fears regarding the impact on employment, the truth is that self-driving vehicles will be able to save trillions of dollars in time, insurance, and accidents, and only the most short-sighted are not making preparations for the coming transport revolution. As technology and environmental awareness continue to grow in influence, it’s time for every driver to consider their costs and make changes in order to maximize their potential for savings. As the automotive industry moves forward at lightning pace, the consumers are the ones who will be benefiting from the positive potentials that 2018 has to offer.
What’s the next stage of evolution for every form of transport?
选项
A、Driving with less human intervention.
B、Creating faster cars.
C、Producing more efficient vehicles.
D、Restricting automation to factories.
答案
A
解析
细节题。根据the next stage of evolution定位至第三段第三句“随着自动驾驶技术的出现,这将成为各种运输形式的下一个发展阶段”,与A项 “驾驶中人为干预更少”一致,其中with less human intervention是对原文self-driving的同义改写。其他选项答非所问,均排除。
