According to some media, two out of three drivers do not like autonomous cars, despite how much they are talked about in the media.
In general, when talking about the electric car and the autonomous car, emphasis is placed on their positive aspect in order to reduce pollution on our planet, and although this is true, it is not entirely true. The really positive thing would be that we did not use cars. Period.
But since that is not possible, I think that to facilitate the sale of these new cars, the "advantages" of the electric car should be highlighted compared to the combustion car. An electric car has fewer breakdowns, its cost of consumption is much lower, it is less noisy, etc …
There is always talk about the limitation of their autonomy, when more than three quarters of cars in general circulate less than 200 km a day. This means that an electric car serves us for most of our needs, and we must not forget that many families have more than one car at their disposal, so one can be used for long trips, and the rest be electric.
I think that the electric car should have better marketing campaigns by the manufacturers, and more economic aid to encourage its purchase by the Administrations.
And something similar happens with the autonomous car. Most of the news you read is about the level of driving achieved, and not about the safety improvements that are being introduced when researching those cars.
I think that manufacturers should highlight the new security possibilities that are introduced in cars with the new sensors, and the new capabilities of cars to carry out some activities by themselves, and with the possibility of warning the driver in the event of a mistake on their part.
The technology introduced in cars acts as a "guardian" to protect the driver, and he must be the one who decides how he wants to be "helped" by the vehicle, without a priori impositions.
Attached is an interesting video from Toyota, about tests carried out on a circuit. The car warns the driver of problems on the road or the vehicle makes decisions to avoid having an accident.

Those who buy a car with autonomous capabilities should feel that they have a better and safer car to travel with their family, and that if necessary the car can take some action autonomously to avoid an accident.
With better Marketing messages, things are sold better.
