THE world's automobile makers should enhance the vehicle electrification process and create a wireless system for vehicles to communicate with each other to make future automobiles free from petroleum and emissions as well as accidents and congestion, the top official of GM told a forum at the Expo site today.

World-renowned scholars, automotive industry experts and government officials discussed "Post-Expo" opportunities for sustainable automotive industry development.
Chen Hong, Vice Chairman of the SAIC Group and President of SAIC Motor, said SAIC would speed up the commercialization of new energy vehicles and explore our new strategy for sustainable automotive industry development.
John Du, director of GM's China Science Lab, said GM would accelerate the electrification process through growing research in batteries, electric motors, power electronics and production-intent fuel cell systems.
