VR has become an extremely valuable piece of technology for the automotive industry and it’s only going to get bigger. In a virtual world, designers and customers are able to see, test and experience any car without even leaving their door. Consumers can now sit on their sofa and have a virtual reality test drive of a Bugatti Veyron whilst eating their breakfast. Although be warned this is not advised!
A study ran by mckinsey.com suggests that by the year of 2020, 5% of all cars will be sold through the internet. Virtual reality will be a huge driver of this shift in buying cars and if the technology continues to grow at such a rapid rate, this number could be significantly higher.
