GM Asks "What’s Next?"

Everybody has a clear picture of the automotive industry in the future one way or another, and it’s seems to be as successful as the present time - or make it twice as successful! I can see car covers in the future, and they will be great for sure. But 20 years from now, what will power the planet’s vehicles? There are still unanswered questions… And GM also asks, "What’s next?"

According the Auto Channel, assessments on matters like these will mostly figure transportation in the 21st century. GM will highlight its 100th anniversary by introducing a worldwide dialogue through a program called GMnext. This is intended to speed the process.

"We're starting our second century at a time of fundamental change in the auto industry. We'll use GMnext to introduce some of our ideas for addressing critical issues concerning energy, the environment and globalization. In the process, we also hope to spark a broader, global discussion on these important topics," said GM Chairman and CEO Rick Wagoner.

GMnext will draw attention to GM's unveiling of next-generation vehicles and technologies. It will consist of the latest applications of the E-Flex drive system and also, the constant work on the company’s line of Plug-In and Two-Mode hybrid vehicles.
