The automotive industry is undergoing one of the deepest transformations in its history, and this episode of FOBtv breaks down what’s actually happening behind the headlines. Host Kevin Benedict sits with Naresh Mehta, Global Chief Technology & Innovation Officer at TCS, to examine how factories, supply chains, and the vehicles themselves are being fundamentally redesigned. They explore the real state of smart factories, what digital twins now make possible, how robotics and AI are quietly reshaping daily production, and why cars are rapidly becoming software-first machines. Naresh also offers a rare, practical look at how energy transitions, safety data, and global disruptions are rewriting the rules for automakers. If you want to understand where the next decade of automotive manufacturing is truly headed—and what leaders should be paying attention to now—this conversation is essential.
