A few months ago EniLab posted an excellent interview with Chris Bangle.

One paragraph of that article has been on my mind ever since then.

In the article Bangle says:

"I worry that the industry isn't looking far enough forward. We're closing in rapidly at the end of the current paradigm in the evolution of the car, and if this paradigm lasts beyond 2020, I'll be amazed. After that, cars, as we understand them now, will be different animals."

I am fascinated with the idea that we're coming to the end of the current paradigm in the evolution of the car ....but how should we interpret this?

What do you guys think the next step for the automobile is?
