Since you tagged #automobilehistory, I'm going to say that Musk has likely solidified his name in the history books more than anyone else in the automotive world of the past two decades.

But probably not me cars are in the ending stages of their product lifecycle. will probably not be anymore “revolutionary” products as everyone is going to play it super safe.

I nversely, c ars might end up getting super crazy in a couple years as companies try to differentiate. but I’m thinking cars are going the way of the smartphone.
