Future and Mobility



We sometimes use the term "mobility" rather than the traditional term "automobile." We live in an exciting time of dynamic change; who can say whether the transportation devices of the future will have four wheels and an engine? To us, nothing is more true than the adage, "Change is the only constant." That's why our technologies must be intelligent, flexible and intuitive, and our ideas must be exceptional rather than merely adequate.

In anticipating the future of vehicles we must take into account all possible driving contexts, such as increasing use of trunk roads due to urban sprawl, aging roads, bridges and other infrastructure, and changing demographics.

Volkswagen Group Research puts all this evolving information to work in revolutionary automotive concepts, integrating powertrain, styling and safety into a deeply satisfying ownership experience.

Change helps shape us, and we can, in turn, help shape the world. Social, technological, economic, ecological and political trends will be the collective inspiration for our innovative vehicle concepts of the future.
