I find it ODD that media labels Detroit the hotbed of
automotive technology when ""most"" of
the innovativeness is outside the city limits.
Michigan has led the nation in mobility-related patents over the past five years, and is home to 49 connected and automated vehicle projects. “Seventy-six percent of the American auto industry’s research and development happens in the state of Michigan. Ninety-six percent of the top 100 automotive suppliers in North America have a presence in Michigan.""
A recent article even looped in Toyota Research Institute [[TRI)
and University of Michigan’s Mcity; as Detroit Automotive.
Detroit is pretty much OFF Limits -- for a variety of reasons.
Let us be brutally Honest, it is NOT happening in the city limits.
