LAST week, I attended the first Japan Mobility Show that replaced the bi-annual Tokyo Motor Show. The Japanese car industry has decided to pivot its very popular transport show into the mobility platform since the advent of electric vehicles (EVs) and the supposed ongoing takeover by EVs of the transport sector worldwide.

Transitioning to the Japan Mobility Show was not a very difficult decision to make after decades of a global movement against emission pollution and depletion of fossil fuel that has allegedly led to global warming.
