Automotive 4.0
Nowadays, the biggest strenght in our daily lives, is the “mobility” and for having this, the most crucial stepstones are the vehicles (cars. Etc.) which are as important as the smart phones.
In 21st century, cars are more than just a vehicle to reach from one single point to another with a provided “mobility”, we just basically mention that they are individualized private vehicles connecting to the other “objects” and any people through internet.
Because individual drivers are no longer just potencial customers, but they are also stakeholders of us on which we, as automotive companies and brands, handle their “daily lives” and establish individual relations with them.
Nowadays we are not just talking about the “things of internet” but also talking about the “internet of behavioral patterns”.
