Today, a new series of converging trends could profoundly impact how—and of what—vehicles are made. Electric vehicles, autonomous vehicles, and shared mobility will help define the future of mobility, potentially creating winners and losers in the Chemicals and Specialty Materials sector. The survey "Make the future of mobility" explores challenges and opportunities that the new mobility ecosystem could create for these companies.

Many may need to create value in the face of shifts in material requirements and demand, but they appear to have an opportunity to actively shape this demand and co-create the new mobility landscape. Those that simply react are likely to themselves with a shrinking—and commoditized—share of the transportation materials market.
