We chat with Gerry McGovern before the New York Auto Show on self-driving cars, the limits of technology, and the enduring power of beauty.
It's a fascinating time to be a car designer. With the impeding rise of self-driving vehicles, new technology for better visibility on the road, and more, there's never been a better time to rethink the experience of driving. In advance of the New York International Auto Show this weekend, Co.Design caught up with Gerry McGovern, the design director and chief creative officer for Jaguar Land Rover. At a Manhattan showroom, he was debuting the 2016 Range Rover SV Autobiography, the company's latest limited-edition luxury vehicle. Here's what he had to say about tomorrow's car design, including how Land Rover approaches technological innovation (cautiously), why the company isn't worried about autonomous cars, and why backseats are about to get a lot cooler.
