The transportation industry is evolving rapidly, driven by two transformative technologies: electric vehicles (EVs) and autonomous vehicles (AVs). Together, these innovations have the potential to revolutionize how we travel by reducing fossil fuel dependence, improving safety, and reshaping urban infrastructure. This article explores the rise of EVs and AVs, their benefits, challenges, and what the future holds for these technologies.
Autonomous vehicles (AVs) operate with minimal to no human intervention using sensors, cameras, and AI to navigate. AVs are classified into levels from Level 0 (no automation) to Level 5 (full automation), with each level representing an increased ability for the vehicle to drive itself.
