New information technology as well as changing consumer needs and behaviours will definitively change the way we will drive, use and own cars in the future.
(PRWEB) May 20, 2015
In the opening headline of the second day of the conference (June 4), Mr. Bendrik will explore how the connected consumer will change the automotive industry, assessing what the users of today and tomorrow expect of their cars. He will also identify the new technologies and business opportunities available to the industry and offer insights into how Volvo Cars is offering a highly customer-centric experience, highlighting how key connectivity has become to shaping automaker strategies and business.
Klas Bendrik said, “We see a lot of opportunities to create new customer value when the connected customer meets the connected car. New information technology as well as changing consumer needs and behaviours will definitively change the way we will drive, use and own cars in the future.”
Alongside a headline presentation, Volvo will have a presence demonstrating some of the new technologies available in its vehicles on the exhibition floor – the all new Volvo XC90 will be shown together with the upgraded telematics solution Volvo On Call 3.0 at the WirelessCar booth and Volvo Cars’ latest, industry leading User Interface will be featured at the stand of Ericsson.
Justin Parker, Project Lead for TU-Automotive Detroit said, “To attract an executive of Mr. Bendrik’s seniority really does show how integral connectivity, mobility and autonomous tech have become to the business plans of automakers. From the presentation, delegates will be able to identify what opportunities exist in supporting Volvo with their vision of delivering customer-centric mobility solutions and experiences”.
