About this episode
Peggy Smedley takes a deep dive into the future of autonomous vehicles and what it will take to get there. She explains how the path to full automation is long—but potentially transformative. Peggy breaks down each level of automation, from manual driving to fully autonomous systems, and where adoption stands today—and where it's headed by 2030.
She also discusses:
- The role of AI in enabling autonomous vehicle technology and global forecasts for vehicle automation levels.
- Real-world examples from automakers like Mercedes-Benz, BMW, Tesla, and others.
- The biggest roadblocks—consumer perception, regulation, liability, and trust.
