'If machines drive, and we can make them good at doing that, in the long term it just doesn't make sense that we drive,' said Mate Rimac, founder of electric supercar maker Rimac Automobili.
The founder of electric supercar maker Rimac Automobili has said it won't make sense for people to own or drive their own cars in the coming decades.
From a base in Croatia, Rimac Automobili specializes in futuristic performance cars while also creating high-tech parts for clients including Aston Martin, Porsche and Hyundai. It is on the bleeding-edge of motoring tech, and is now turning its attention toward electric bikes. "If machines drive, and we can make them good at doing that, in the long term it just doesn't make sense that we drive," Rimac continued."It's all fun and games until somebody gets hurt or you lose somebody you are close with. In the long term I don't think it makes sense to own and drive cars. It will make sense for a few people who still care about it, and that will be less and less people [over time.] I think it's inevitable because it just makes sense.
"Let's look into the future. You are standing in front of the choice of either investing a huge chunk of your money in buying a hunk of metal and plastic for 30, 40, 50 thousand dollars,you have the convenient option of paying as you go, the car picks you up in a few minutes, it's a nice environment and you spend a few dollars per day on your transport.
