Top 70 Autos Trends in September

From Elegant Futuristic E-Motorbikes to Reimagined Compact EVs

— October 1, 2023 — Autos
This list of automotive trends for September 2023 includes innovations in four-wheeled cars, motorbikes, driving peripherals, and smart technologies in the auto space. Whether looking into what features new cars are equipped with, or catching up on the direction of the automotive industry, this list has multiple suitable examples.

Take the Loop Program from Treasure Island Mobility Management for example, this is a pilot program for a driverless public transportation service. These driverless busses drive around Treasure Island for ten hours a day, stopping at each bus stop. People can hop-on and hop-off the busses for free, while each bus is staffed with an attendant for safety assurance. This has significant implications for the future of transportation services.

On the other hand, the new compact fifth-generation Mini Cooper EV model from BMW is space efficient, energy efficiency, and cost efficient. This compact EV retails for roughly $35,000 USD, and it reaches nearly 150-miles per charge, making it an excellent EV for the daily commuter who doesn't require extensive truck-sized storage space.
