12mil driverless cars to be on the road by 2035


The future of driving will be... hands-free. Driverless cars are the way to go, and there will be 12 million of these vehicles by 2035.

DETROIT: Fully automated driverless cars could make up nearly 10% of global vehicle sales, or about 12 million cars a year, by 2035, the Boston Consulting Group said on Thursday.

BCG said 44% of US drivers it surveyed would consider buying a fully autonomous vehicle within the next 10 years, and 20% would be willing to pay an extra US$5,000 or more for the advanced technology required to operate such a vehicle.
