A newcomer enters the industry with no legacies, a radically different operating model and an open technology philosophy.
“Do an Apple on Auto”
An industry player or a newcomer turns the industry upside down by radically changing and enhancing the customer experience, possibly tapping into unforeseen new sources of revenue.
“Do a Google on Auto”
An industry player or a newcomer turns the industry upside down by disrupting fundamental automotive technologies (CO2 reactor, …)
and capturing significant marketshare value.

What An Every Day iCAR Experience Could be Like
44 Traffic builds and he wants an alternate route. John accesses the i-Car Community network to learn local traffic conditions. The GPS uses this data to build an optimum route.
En-route, John voice activates the i-Car application store. He buys and downloads a new flight status tracker widget with high ratings in the iCAR community site.
55 John arrives and the parking lot is full. He sees i-Car owners in lot on screen and starts voice chat (VIM) to ask where there is parking. The other driver directs him to an available space.
66
His RFID-enabled key starts his personalized dashboard display settings. Before driving off, he checks in with his family using the on-board HD TelePresence dashboard unit.
2211 Having just landed back, John contacts his iCAR to remind him where he parked. He receives directions by SMS.

John returns home from a long trip, locates his iCAR via GPS, and follows directions on his mobile.
Entering the car, he reunites with family via a heads-up TelePresence display.
Meanwhile, his business data is synchronized in the background, and the iCAR instinctively navigates the best route to his upcoming meeting.
Entering the parking lot for his client meeting, he spots colleagues nearby and touches Nancy’s iCAR to speak live with her, let her know he has arrived, and hone last-minute strategy for the meeting.
