The Washington Auto Show® Announces 2015 Show Book: "The New Mobility"

WASHINGTON, Jan. 6, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Automated automobiles, wi-fi from the passenger seat and driving technology that anticipates and averts accidents. These mindboggling machines we call cars do more than ever before. In other words, the future is here: How will you drive it?

Luckily, award-winning automotive writer and syndicated Washington Post columnist Warren Brown helps to explore and explain the greater roles and responsibilities of the car in today's connected age. In the 2015 Washington Auto Show book, "The New Mobility," Brown takes readers for a spin around the whizbang technologies on display at The Washington Auto Show. "The car is a communications device that has come of age," says Brown, whose book will be available to showgoers. "Breakthrough technology in telecommunications and safety has connected the car and driver with the outside world in ways we could hardly foresee."

Such advances include the development of the car as a mobile Wi-Fi hot-spot, ensuring that connectivity is as close to a driver as the buttons on the dashboard. At the same time, these innovations make for a safer and more enjoyable driving experience as sensors can warn drivers of what to avoid on their journey– from construction and traffic obstacles to wrong turns and collisions. Today's automobiles have the wherewithal–via stereoscopic cameras, radar and sonar systems and computers – to "see" all of those things before they present a problem and to autonomously take, or prompt their drivers to take, evasive action.

It is the new world of the automobile, and "The New Mobility" connects readers to the future that's on display at the 2015 Washington Auto Show. For more information, please visit the show online at: www.washingtonautoshow.com.

Produced by the Washington Area New Automobile Dealers Association (WANADA), The Washington Auto Show features more than 700 new makes and models from more than 42 global manufacturers.
