At "Ludwigsburg", officially the International Autombil Elektronik Kongress, there was a push this year to be more international.

The most comprehensive presentation was by Dr Volkmar Tenneberger who works for the VW Group in China, and I stole his title for the title for this blog post.

All data in this table is 2017, so it is pretty much up to date.
