Mobility Revolution captures the sweeping transformation redefining how people and goods move. Drawing on decades of experience across Paris, Detroit, and Silicon Valley, Marc Amblard unpacks the forces driving this historic shift, namely the push for clean mobility, volatile regulations, ambitious startups, geopolitics, and the global power shift toward China. He dissects the central role played by technology as electrification, autonomous driving, artificial intelligence, the software defined vehicle, and new modes reshape the entire ecosystem.

Blending insightful technology perspectives with rigorous strategic analyses, this book explores the new products and services, innovative business models and collaborations, and complex supply chains, that will determine the next era in automotive and mobility. Organized around key domains — clean mobility, autonomy, digital transformation, and changing mobility paradigms — the book offers professionals and policymakers a panoramic yet practical view of where mobility is headed.

Mobility Revolution is essential reading for anyone seeking to understand and anticipate the future of transportation.
