motor cars

Motor Cars are synonomous with the Industrial Age, being a mechanical solution to our travel needs. Given their dependence upon the rods and pistons of their combustion engines they are still fundamentally mechancial in principle. However, they are following the trend of ‘electronify’.
Today, more of the cost of motor cars is spent on electronic components than on the traditional steel frame. We have electronic fuel injection to make our engines more efficient, electronic components added to our brakes to give us more control over our stoppng ability, we have electronic instrumentation that more accurately tells us how much fuel we have left and we have electronic systems to disable the car to minimize theft.
The push to electric cars would complete the ‘electronify’ process of the motor car.
