TechMobility Topics ·

2025/11/04

What jobs will be in demand over the next ten years? We analyze the job outlook for the coming decade. Warehousing and transportation will keep growing, but automation and autonomous trucks are changing the need for human workers and reshaping job roles. Healthcare expands to meet demographic demands, with technology handling routine tasks so workers can focus on complex care. Office support, retail cashiers, and some clerical jobs continue to decline due to AI and self-service systems. Across cars,

Sailing Smarter: Wind Power Meets Modern Shipping

TechMobility Topics ·

2025/11/04

During this podcast, we introduce you to the Neoliner Origin, a modern wind-powered RoRo (Roll-on, Roll-off) cargo ship that just completed an Atlantic crossing with rigid sails and a diesel-electric backup. It transports vehicles, containers, and refrigerated goods while aiming for up to 80 percent lower emissions than traditional ships. The motivation isn’t romance; it’s economics: lower fuel risk, regulatory resilience, and reliable operation. Like autos and agriculture, winners in shipping are

TechMobility Topics ·

2025/11/04

In this episode, we talk about a well-known automotive nameplate that is being prepared for a bold update. Toyota aims to make the Corolla stand out with a low, wide, sporty look paired with a platform that can support gasoline, hybrid, battery electric, or hydrogen powertrains. Instead of focusing on a single future, Toyota is developing many options—shrinking engines without losing power, improving aerodynamics, and using flexible manufacturing to reduce lead times so you can order what you want

From iPhones to EVs: Foxconn’s American Car Play

TechMobility Topics ·

2025/10/28

A phone manufacturer building your next “American” EV might seem crazy—until you see the plan. We explain how Foxconn shifted from making iPhones to building electric cars, why rebadging through a U.S. automaker could unlock scale, and how tariffs, incentives, and dealer networks influence what actually ends up in your driveway. The past offers clues—Chevy LUV and Ford Courier compact pickup trucks, for example, with the future arriving on private-label platforms.

Bollinger Reboots—But Can It Still Compete?

TechMobility Topics ·

2025/10/28

It's time for a Bollinger update! We examine Bollinger’s evolution from no-frills EV concepts to medium-duty chassis cabs. After lawsuits, a cash infusion, and a restructuring into Bollinger Innovations, the company is consolidating manufacturing and cutting costs while competing in a crowded field of medium-duty commercial EVs. The lesson is clear: auto manufacturing rewards those who can scale repeatable quality at a price buyers are willing to pay; everyone else runs out of runway.

2025/10/28

In this episode, we also clarify why oil prices are rebounding without falling into conspiracy theories. U.S. producers report break-even points near $65 per barrel, while West Texas Intermediate crude remains below that level, leading to reduced new drilling and a pause in rig counts. Factors like OPEC and Saudi strategies, seasonal changes in gasoline blends, and replenishing the government reserve all influence the pump price you're seeing. It’s a tug-of-war between costs, capacity, and investor
