About

Launched in 2019 by motoring journalist Neil Kennett, Cars of the Future provides news and views about driverless vehicles in the UK.

Inspired by the overwhelming response to his 2018 long-read article “Autonomous now: the shift to self-driving”, we promote informed opinion, voices of reason in an area plagued by hyperbolic headlines.

Connected and autonomous vehicles (CAVs) divide opinion. Indeed, recent surveys have shown that people across the world are becoming more, not less, wary of them.

For supporters, they represent a giant leap forward for mobility and road safety. For detractors, they’re a nightmare mix of cybersecurity and ethical concerns.

Our mission is: To chart the development of, and encourage sensible debate about, all aspects of self-driving.
