How Dow's advanced materials are driving electric and autonomous mobility

The future of automotive isn’t just tech—it’s emotional intelligence. I truly believe: “The most powerful connection isn't between a car and the road—it's between the builder and the driver.” This industry is changing faster than ever. Electric powertrains, autonomous software, sustainable materials—it’s easy to focus only on the tech. But behind every innovation is a person. A story. A feeling. Whether you're: 🔧 An engineer designing intuitive controls 🤝 A sales pro building trust on the lot 📲 A marketer telling a brand’s story ⚙️ A technician ensuring safety and reliability …your ultimate goal is the same: human connection. That’s why emotional intelligence isn't a "soft skill" in automotive—it's essential. It’s: Listening to what customers really need Collaborating across teams with empathy Leading with curiosity, not just certainty The cars of tomorrow will be smarter—but will they understand us? That’s our real challenge. And our greatest opportunity. What do you think? How are you blending tech and humanity in your role? 👇 ⏩ Let's connect if you're passionate about the future of mobility—tech with a human touch. #AutomotiveIndustry #AutoInnovation #VehicleTechnology #CarManufacturing #ElectricVehicles #SustainableMobility #AutomotiveEngineering #FutureOfTransport #SmartVehicles #MobilitySolutions #AutomotiveTrends #ConnectedCars #AutoDesign #TransportationTech #AutomotiveNews #CarSafety #MobilityInnovation #AutomotiveSupplyChain #VehicleElectrification #AutoMarketInsights

Hyundai Motor Group Boosts U.S. Investment to $26 Billion Through 2028 Hyundai Motor Group has announced a $26 billion investment in the United States between 2025 and 2028, an increase of $5 billion over plans unveiled earlier this year. The move underscores Hyundai’s long-term commitment to U.S. innovation, job creation, and sustainable growth. – A new steel mill in Louisiana will reinforce U.S. automotive supply chains and industrial resilience. – Hyundai and Kia will expand U.S. auto production capacity to better serve consumer demand. – A state-of-the-art robotics facility (30,000-unit annual capacity) will anchor Hyundai’s U.S. robotics hub. – The Group expects to create 25,000 direct jobs over the next four years. – Investments will accelerate technology commercialization in robotics, AI, and autonomous driving, building on U.S.-based affiliates like Boston Dynamics and Motional. Since entering the U.S. in 1986, Hyundai has invested more than $20.5 billion. This latest commitment positions the company as a leader in EVs, robotics, and advanced manufacturing—while strengthening U.S. economic and industrial competitiveness. — Thanks to our sponsor Uber for Business (https://lnkd.in/df8X_6W)

New era of sustainable manufacturing at BMW Group plant Debrecen ⬇ The BMW Group is set to launch series production of the new BMW iX3 at its Debrecen plant, which will operate entirely on renewable energy, marking a significant step towards sustainable automotive manufacturing. → The Debrecen facility is designed in line with BMW's iFACTORY vision, emphasizing digitalization and efficiency. This plant will not only produce the iX3 but also integrate innovative manufacturing processes that minimize fossil fuel use. → A key feature of the Debrecen plant is its paint shop, which will significantly reduce CO₂e emissions by relying solely on electricity from renewable sources. This approach is expected to cut emissions by approximately 90% compared to traditional production methods. → The plant's digital-first strategy includes the use of AI and advanced logistics systems. Autonomous vehicles and smart transport robots will streamline in-house logistics, enhancing efficiency and reducing manual tasks. → The production of Gen6 high-voltage batteries will also take place on-site, allowing for optimized processes and local assembly. This aligns with BMW's "local for local" principle, ensuring that production is efficient and responsive to demand. #Manufacturing #EV #BMW
