The Mobility Outlook 2027: A World Moving Faster, Smarter and More Connected
Transportation enters 2027 amid continuing changes in propulsion, infrastructure, connectivity and automation. Road vehicles are becoming more intelligent, rail networks are expanding, aviation is pursuing greater efficiency and shipping and logistics are adopting new technologies. This edition examines the mobility environment at the beginning of the year across road, rail, air and water. It connects the major technological and operational forces influencing how passengers and cargo move while considering the infrastructure required to support them.
Editor's Note
The mobility outlook is much broader than the future of any individual vehicle. Movement depends on networks connecting roads, railways, airports, ports and logistics systems. As 2027 begins, each is being influenced by technology, energy and changing demand. This edition looks across that complete landscape to understand the developments shaping transportation without attempting to predict which technology or mode will ultimately dominate.
