In an article in Worth Magazine, CSB Director Tensie Whelan discusses how electric vehicles are taking over the luxury auto sector and how this could be an important step towards lowering greenhouse gas emissions - and for transforming your mode of transportation into a living room or office.

The Lagonda concept also explores the potential for autonomous driving, with the ability to turn the living room style chairs around to converse with each other without getting a crick in your neck.

However, China is winning the race in terms of units, with more than 1 million EVs sold in 2018."
