Economic Impacts

The transportation industry makes up a huge portion of the US economy. Because AVs will bring about dramatic changes to this transportation, this industry as a whole, as well as consumers, will be affected.

Navigant Research predicts that 75% of U.S. vehicles sold in 2035 will have “autonomous” capability.

Fully automated vehicles (AVs) have a huge potential to mitigate crashes, enhance safety mobility for all, and increase road safety, road capacity, and in turn, efficiency. Availability of these factors will have direct impacts on various stakeholders involved in providing these services.
