Through the Future of Mobility Hub, Infineum reinforces its role as a strategic partner for businesses navigating the transformative journey towards sustainable mobility.
Adapting to change
The automotive industry's drive towards cleaner energy and sustainable practices has introduced many new technologies at an unprecedented pace.
The advancements come with significant regional variations in regulations, terminology and adoption rates, presenting hurdles for fluid developers and marketers. Infineum's hub seeks to bridge this gap by providing strategic insights into global and regional mobility trends and understanding the key drivers behind these transitions.
Balancing ICE and Electrification
While the rise of EVs dominates the conversation, Infineum recognises that the internal combustion engine (ICE) still plays a pivotal role in transitioning to a sustainable future. The Future of Mobility Hub offers a nuanced view of how electrification and ICE coexist in the evolving automotive ecosystem.
Infineum's analysis will clarify the life expectancy of ICE technologies and offer fluid formulators insights into their relevance in a multi-fuel future.
As Infineum states, the hub's goal is to monitor and interpret how regional drivers shape fleet transformations, delivering a balanced understanding of the automotive transition.
Data-driven intelligence for strategic decisions
The Future of Mobility Hub leverages third-party data and forecasts, but its value extends beyond raw numbers. The hub equips users with actionable intelligence to adapt to dynamic market conditions by offering region-specific analysis and trend interpretation.
Chia Boon Ping, Strategic Business Director for Personal Mobility at Infineum, emphasised the importance of a balanced, data-centric approach:
"The global energy transition is crucial to ensuring a sustainable environment, economy, and quality of life for future generations. The pace and pattern of mobility transitions will vary significantly across regions. As we march into a multi-fuel future, the Future of Mobility Hub aims to provide unbiased, up-to-date data, information, and analysis to help navigate the upcoming transformations in the automotive, lubricants, and additives industries.
A multi-fuel future and regional insights
Infineum envisions a future where multiple fuel types and technologies coexist, shaping the next chapter of mobility. Updates to the hub in the coming months will focus on regional powertrain trends, shedding light on how diverse global factors influence fleet strategies.
The company aims to empower stakeholders in the automotive, lubricant and additive industries with resources to plan effectively for an evolving market. With a commitment to sustainability and innovation, Infineum continues to drive its mission as a world-class speciality chemicals company.
