The Biggest Changes Coming to the Automotive Industry in 2025

[@kenm.7651]

Once upon a time, Honda & Toyota plus a few domestic brands made very basic and inexpensive (I don’t like the word ‘cheap’) vehicles that low wage earners could afford. They didn’t have the frills or fancy stuff that all modern cars have now that helps drive up the cost. We need makers to go back to basics. The vehicles highlighted here may be nice, but the average to below average person cannot afford them.

Bring on the crank windows.

[@kenm.7651]

@ I’d be ok with that.

[@opencarry3860]

I wish for simple gas powered vehicles like what was offered in the 80s and 90s. Vehicles today are too high-tech, too connected to the net, just too much Orwellian invasiveness.

[@jimsmalleimb7709]

YES!!!!!! All these "automotive experts" are concentrating on the high tech GARBAGE that only rich spoiled brats like themselves can afford and trade in every two years! By the time they depreciate to a used car price the rest of us can afford, they will be too expensive to fix or maintain.

[@MidRiseDenseMixedUseWalkable]

America’s car department single use sprawl zoning is Orwellian, no matter what type of cars are available.

[@goldy7678]

Agreed, so much is made of the "infotainment screen" and other technologies that I think people forget that their car is a mode of transportation. Being disconnected from the digital world while driving is a very good thing.

I went to the L.A. Auto Show and there wasn't much new or WOW! from anyone except the Korean companies and their EVs. Problem is I'm not an EV fan. The rest all seemed to be showing the same old models with just a bit of new trim. Quite disappointed in that the emphasis by car manufacturers is on more accessories and convenience features. I thought consumers were getting tired of all the software driven gadgetry and touch screens. But when I asked the reps some verified those features are being emphasized due to 'subscription services' which makes them a new ongoing revenue stream for the car companies. I thought those had gotten a lot of negative feedback from the public where they have already been put in service, like heated seats. Still waiting to see some smaller, affordable cars, but none were on the floor except silly mini-SUVs.

[@CarCoachReports]

I agree and consumers will push back and buy brands that are not over charging them with subscription fees

@CarCoachReports Not to mention the Ford Advertising even when the radio is turned off. 👦👍🏎🏁🚩 Also, even though Governor Gavin Newsom, vetoed the Bill or Law for the Speed Limit Law... the over 10 mph, over the Speed Limit. Chime, or mash the Pedal and not go faster than 75 on freeway, or the Car Enthusiasts channels at Racetracks the street nearby will reflect how fast it will go. For instance Irwindale Speedway 45 mph. Car will only go 55 mph. The 2022 to 2023 Audi R8 had the constant beeping or chime at 1 mph over speed limit. Owners traded them for Lamborghini or other Super cars. They stopped making Audi R8... this will happen to All Manufacturer's. Reason Massachusetts passed the same law. You know they will not retool for just the one state. It will be global. Thus, the beginning of Havana Cuba Effect, and why Racetracks will Close. Infotainment systems have Compromised Secured Military Locations via Bluetooth, with Cameras and Phone conversations, as well as Workstation computer with 2nd to 3rd step Authentication from Secured phone. EV'S are more toxic than all V8's ever made combined. As long as they have V8 rear wheel drive, and a 3rd Fun Pedal 6 Speed Manual Transmission i approve. If they're Electric Vehicle's (EV's) read the following you'll find V8's are cleaner for the Environment. To Jim Farley you daily a Chinese Electric Vehicle (EV).

[@davesup5059]

What about gas and diesel vehicles. Some of us don't want EV's.

[@crosslink1493]

They were there, but nothing really new under the hoods this year so emphasis was on the gadgets and trim levels. Still the same emphasis on the turbo 4 and 6 cyl engines (A big NO from me!).

[@josearias2671]

All those EVs in whatever brand that makes them are trash. Good luck to those who buy them

[@klasseact6663]

I'm all about choice, if it works for them, fine, just stop this damn mandate sh!t💀

[@curtisi4403]

They keep saying how important the auto industry is but at this pace it's already dead.

[@jimsmalleimb7709]

They will cater only to the rich.

[@MidRiseDenseMixedUseWalkable]

I’m glad

[@Shakerhood69]

They are wanting to force people into Orwellian 15 minute cities.

[@Hemidakota]

The biggest change is how Musk is planning to update how vehicles are manufactured (modulation method). Not only that, bots can do what human labours has accomplished with manufacturing line. This is being done in Europe as a testing ground. The prices of vehicles are now 30 percent over the cost what most consumers can afford.

I had worked at the Hawthorne Los Angeles California Facilities of SpaceX. Out of the 1,500 employees only 8 Drove Electric Vehicle's (EV's) . Most drive like Mr V8 Mustang's. as well as 1975 or older with newer V8's mostly old Trucks, with some Hondas, Toyota and Subaru. No Kia, couple Hyundai. Mercedes, BMW. though older 5 + years.. Don't really pay as much. Since Headquarters left California to Texas. Electric Vehicle's (EV's) are more Toxic than all V8's ever made combined. Keep reading 📚 reality will be astonishing. Why there's no flying car's. V8's Forever 👦👍🏎🏁🚩⛰️🏔🏞🧗🎄 Side note why there shouldn't be Electric Vehicle's (EV's) my My V8 Mustang is better for the Environment than EV's.

[@codincoman9019]

BEV is a scam so far. And Tesla is the most advanced in scamming the dumbs believing that the CO2 is a pollutant etc.

[@jimsmalleimb7709]

30%?? More like 300%

[@Chris-ji8jw]

Nice report, thanks for sharing 👍🏻🔥

[@CarCoachReports]

Thanks for watching!

[@theinterwebs4443]

Funny cause Korea may even compete with FANUC one day Keep in mind Hyundai bought Boston Dynamics. They use the same rotate vector gearbox that FANUC uses.

[@ctclardy]

Stellantis' abysmal quality and flagrant price gouging are so egregious I don't think they will ever recover... too, bad because I hate to see the Jeep badge disappear. Maybe another manufacturer can buy it and revive it.

[@brokeboy87]

After the initial reviews of the Dodge charger, Dodge is in trouble again. People who love Evs aren't happy with it, and gearheads won't buy it.

[@anothermike-tv1fi]

miss fix those are not cars

[@richardamick1690]

Eve no you don't know what people want

[@FunWithCars716]

Where's the Jaguar 🤔😉😁

[@christophercharles3169]

The Ionic 9 is ugly as is the EV9-GT. No other way to describe it. I don't see what the excitement is all about.

[@crosslink1493]

It doesn't have those Hyundai engines with the failing top ends that caused all those valve problems.
