On thursday the motor show<br \/>\nis opening it&#8217;s doors to the public and all major<br \/>\nmotor brands are presenting their latest cars.<\/p>\n<p><!--more-->This year may become special as two highly anticipated sections are in focus: Electro-fuel cars and autonomous driving. E-Cars are becoming more popular as more and more countries tend to prohibit the activation of classic-gas-driven cars, like Norway, Sweden etc. by a certain year. In Norway they plan to banish all gasoline-driven cars to the year 2025. That&#8217;s highly-sophisticated as there aren&#8217;t enough e-cars available to date and also companies like Tesla still has problems delivering the Model 3 in a sufficient quantity.<\/p>\n<p>The main problem is the production of all the batteries needed to run all these cars.<\/p>\n<p>So although the ban is straight ahead it&#8217;s doubtful that gasoline cars will be banned on 1.1.2025. &#8211; We expect an intermediate solution that alows hybrids to be run till a certain date until the market for e-cars has filled and electro-mobility is widely available to everyone.<\/p>\n<p>But what about autonomous driving? Still there are some glites to be ironed out and late accidents have been a reason why autonomous driving is still held back until it works sufficient.<\/p>\n<p>But it&#8217;s amazing to see these cars run almost alone by themselves without much interaction of the driver.<\/p>\n<p>Let alone the current TEsla models. They&#8217;re capable of handling the city traffic at speeds up to 50kmph without big problems. Although this is only possible due to a complicated camera system and an onboard computer that calculates all the necessary parameters to provide failsafe autonomous driving.<\/p>\n<p>All major motor brands are investigating in autonomous driving as the density of the traffic makes this necessary. The efforts are indeed impressive. And while autonomous driving seems possible, there&#8217;s one variable that can disturb the whole process. Mankind itself! Because nothing is more unpredictible as, let&#8217;s say a child running onto the streets. But it&#8217;s not kids alone that are in danger on the streets. Also adults who aren&#8217;t paying enough attention to the traffic while staring at their electronic device (smartphone, tablet, musicplayer etc&#8230;) can become a serious issue here.<\/p>\n<p>So although the progress in autonomous driving is indeed amazing, the truth is that we won&#8217;t see many autonomous vehicles on the road for another couple of years.<\/p>\n<p>In the meantime the railways may become more autonomous but that&#8217;s another story that doesn&#8217;t belong to the Geneva International Motor Show that takes place in Geneva from March 7<sup>th<\/sup> to March 17<sup>th<\/sup>.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/blog.netspark.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/GIM.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-19881\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.netspark.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/GIM.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"639\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.netspark.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/GIM.png 890w, https:\/\/blog.netspark.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/GIM-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/blog.netspark.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/GIM-481x480.png 481w, https:\/\/blog.netspark.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/GIM-768x766.png 768w, https:\/\/blog.netspark.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/GIM-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/blog.netspark.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/GIM-500x499.png 500w, https:\/\/blog.netspark.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/GIM-64x64.png 64w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>We will be there&#8230;. are you?<\/p>\n<div id=\"polls-15\" class=\"wp-polls\">\n\t<form id=\"polls_form_15\" class=\"wp-polls-form\" action=\"\/index.php\" method=\"post\">\n\t\t<p style=\"display: none;\"><input type=\"hidden\" id=\"poll_15_nonce\" name=\"wp-polls-nonce\" value=\"f1ff43b6e5\" \/><\/p>\n\t\t<p style=\"display: none;\"><input type=\"hidden\" name=\"poll_id\" value=\"15\" \/><\/p>\n\t\t<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Will you visit the Geneva International Motor Show?<\/strong><\/p><div id=\"polls-15-ans\" class=\"wp-polls-ans\"><ul class=\"wp-polls-ul\">\n\t\t<li><input type=\"radio\" id=\"poll-answer-77\" name=\"poll_15\" value=\"77\" \/> <label for=\"poll-answer-77\">Yes, definitely!<\/label><\/li>\n\t\t<li><input type=\"radio\" id=\"poll-answer-78\" name=\"poll_15\" value=\"78\" \/> <label for=\"poll-answer-78\">I would but I am too far away!<\/label><\/li>\n\t\t<li><input type=\"radio\" id=\"poll-answer-79\" name=\"poll_15\" value=\"79\" \/> <label for=\"poll-answer-79\">Nah, I don't find cars interesting enough!<\/label><\/li>\n\t\t<\/ul><p style=\"text-align: center;\"><input type=\"button\" name=\"vote\" value=\"   Vote   \" class=\"Buttons\" onclick=\"poll_vote(15);\" \/><\/p><p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"#ViewPollResults\" onclick=\"poll_result(15); return false;\" title=\"View Results Of This Poll\">View Results<\/a><\/p><\/div>\n\t<\/form>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"polls-15-loading\" class=\"wp-polls-loading\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.netspark.de\/wp-content\/plugins\/wp-polls\/images\/loading.gif\" width=\"16\" height=\"16\" alt=\"Loading ...\" title=\"Loading ...\" class=\"wp-polls-image\" \/>&nbsp;Loading ...<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The international Motor show in Geneva is just few days ahead.
