...practically. According to Renew Economy:
>By 2030, you probably won’t own a car, but you may get a free trip with your morning coffee. Transport-As-A-Service will use only electric vehicles and will upend two trillion-dollar industries. It’s the death spiral for cars.

well clearly theyre wrong, because i aint sellin my shit.
Yeah I heard self driving cars would be the norm by 2020 too.
tip: they dont know shit. especially journalists.
Not clicking ur gay adsense bait link.
i will probably still have a car because i build this type of infrastructure
>Not clicking ur gay adsense bait link.
It's a link to the story, asswipe. Or you can find the story on Drudge, like the rest of the "breaking news". You seem conspiratorial. Maybe you'd feel more at home at /pol/ or /x/?
I doubt it
My guess is that you will first lose control of your car when on the freeways near other cars, or during rush hour.
I honestly would give up driving my car during rush hour if it meant that all those other retards causing the traffic had to lose it as well.
also >reneweconomy.au
Yoorupean auto makers already offer fractional ownership programs where you don't actually own the car, you just pay to use it when you need to get somewhere that can't be reached by public transit. Ford has a similar program I understand it's a very popular segment in the auto market.

if you want people on Veeky Forums to read an article, copy and paste it into the thread instead of a link.
I can see them being a thing by 2030, maybe by 2050 they will "replace" driving.
>car ownership will be over
Maybe in yurop, but here in America you can't remove what I legally own unless you go through with due process of law. And I have the right against searches and seizures.
this is from the same type of people that predicted hover cars in the 70's, just click bait and you got baited
I agree with the article. Your car sits around most of the time doing nothing, which is rather inefficient. Soon (not even 2030) you will be able to pull up an uber like app and have a car come pick you up at your door.
This service will be cheap enough that everyone will be able to afford it, and the government will outlaw driven cars on public roads in the interest of safety.
Enjoy the touge while it lasts.

More like car ownership in cities. Out where I live, the closest town is a 40 minute drive away.

According to Back to the Future movies in 2015 we'd be flying around in cars. If you fuckers think it's reasonable to give up your freedom, then go for it.

Fuck.
I wish more car ads were like that.
I've seen enough cars slowly driving through snowy mountain passes to last me a dozen lifetimes.
Fucking car companies need to have a little pride.

That only applies to citycucks, the rest of us will still need a car, since I doubt that system will be even remotely effective in rural areas.
These are so funny, I'm screencapping these and sharing with Reddit.

My sides... but it's terrifying to be honest
>A major new report predicts that by 2030, the overwhelming majority of consumers will no longer own a car – instead they will use on-demand electric autonomous vehicles.
Yeah maybe the citifags... who already don't have a car and are using taxis, Uber, buses, tramways and metro.
For the rest of who actually live like human beings the cars still have a long way to.
I hope yousay this ironically you fucking nigger.
It's a bit pathetic though isn't it? "Hey men you're a bunch of pussies, only by giving us tens of thousands of dollars can you get your balls back."
Bullshit.
Protip; the service based economy is unsustainable and the only way it can work with the requirement of constant growth is for the government to make capital injections (fuck that)
embrace utopian socialism (as long as we kick the browns out)
Why do all kinds of socialism, except for national socialism, hate cars and fail economicly?
Well no but they can tell you that if you drive it off of your property you'll be arrested.

Wrong website, friend.

These greens are tob gegg, but I can't help but feel comforted by the fact that legitimately good women exist in the world in major numbers to EVER let masculinity they love seeing in their men ever die.
These are the hard-working women that aren't lonely tumblrinas and will always support men in their antics to evolve the world while also working on themselves to stay pretty, not eat mcdonalds and diet soda daily, paint their skin to a smooth color, put on thick frame glasses and call it a day.

this. amerifats are in denial about how they're the good guys when they crushed the last hope of true freedom.
americans lost their country to the federal reserve in 1913 and germany was holding out...the last great power with a chance of fighting back.

That's not the underbelly of a car, gtfo with that weak shit.
They government, let alone industries wouldn't make self driving cars a law. First of all they would need to compensate every citizen for the cars they currently have, they would have to remove the grandfathered in law for older cars. And finally they wouldn't just be able to procure the money
I think there's a really obvious bubble that a lot of these articles and tech giants come from when they talk about this stuff. Public transportation just simply isn't possible or very feasible for a lot of people in America. It's much easier to just jump in your car and run somewhere rather than having to call in a service and wait for it to come pick you up. It's completely asinine.

In the year 2030 you'll just think about wanting to go and your brain-smartphone interface will signal to the free, 1 million car surplus, ride sharing system that you need a ride.
>Alright, $500,000 monthly tax for owning something that is harmful to children.
I'll probably Civil War by then, so whatever.
It's going to have a rubber band effect. Sure, at the beginning it will be cheap. But soon, gas stations will be electric only and refineries will shut down. So the only way you can get gas is by buying it online and having it shipped to your house. Which will be more expensive per gallon.
This, uber is failing already due to an inability to pay its drivers living wages.
So like, renting a car? Fucking revolutionary! What will they think of next?!
They didn´t fail economicly and didn´t hate cars.
They failed due to a war against the whole fucking world and where almost winning...
C'mon Veeky Forums, all those greentext stories are funny as fuck but in reality they all more or less originate from THIS SCENE HERE

You got everything
- Cucked, neutered people
- electric shitbawkes
- A bigass gas guzzling V8
- a police that cant deal
And dont act as if y'all wouldnt love to bust with a hidden elevator through the floor of some cuck-ass future car dealer and let'er rip
You can already create your own gas. And by that point, there will probably be a way to reliably convert any gas engine to full ethanol.
That thing is a joke compared to a fire spitting brapping quadrotor biturbo RX-7 FD.
It doesn´t even drive faster than todys electric cars and can´t outcorner them...
