EVs, AI, tariffs, trust: what the automotive industry’s really grappling with

Last week, we spent two days at the FT Future of the Car Summit — surrounded by OEMs, tech giants, policymakers, analysts, and a healthy dose of uncertainty.

The automotive industry is evolving fast, but the real transformation isn’t just mechanical. It’s narrative. From electrification to autonomy, sustainability to supply chains, the conversations we sat in on weren’t just about tech — they were about trust, belief, and behaviour. They were about communication.

At LoveGunn, we’re always listening for the gaps between what a brand builds and how it explains it. So we’ve captured our key takeaways — and creative opportunities — in a new document: “What the Future (Still) Needs.”

This short but sharp summary breaks down:

  • Why the road to EV adoption is still full of consumer confusion
  • How AI and autonomy risk becoming indistinct across brands
  • Why used EVs and patchy charging infrastructure are holding people back
  • Where sustainability storytelling is lagging behind real progress
  • And how global instability is quietly reshaping brand messaging needs

Each section explores the implications — and where we see brand strategy, narrative design and communication playing a more central role.

If you work in or around automotive, mobility, future tech, or infrastructure, this is for you. Whether you're an OEM, a supplier, or a disruptor brand, we think this will resonate.

And if you’re navigating a shift in your business and want to talk about how brand can lead the way — let’s start that conversation.
