The transformational potential of 5G smart vehicle technology While smart vehicles will unlock fantastic benefits across numerous industries , it is within global supply chains that we will see the most dramatic transformation . “ Making use of 5G technology in vehicles is not just about fleet owners gaining a competitive advantage by being the first to upgrade . The benefits to consumers , and to the planet – not to mention driver wellbeing – are all equally , if not more , important than having the ability to realise significant cost savings ,” said Kuushynau .
“ And , while it might have taken a significant technological shift , with 3G shutting down to catalyse this infrastructure investment , the logistics industry can be seen as a beacon of light in leading the charge for 5G adoption in vehicles of the future .”
