DETROIT – What’s the outlook for electrified vehicles, what is delaying their widespread adoption and what are automotive suppliers doing to overcome these obstacles?
These questions will be answered at a special industry panel to be held during Industry Days at the 2019 NAIAS AutoMobili-D exhibition.
The panel, titled eMobility: What are We Waiting For? Overcoming Obstacles for Mass Adoption, will feature high-level supplier executives discussing the challenges and opportunities that electrification holds for new and traditional automotive suppliers.
