"Next month, leaders from across the auto industry will converge in Detroit for the SAE 2015 World Congress and Exhibition to explore the future of the auto industry and innovations in mobility. We're honored at Honda to provide Executive Leadership and, along with our Tier One partner, Continental, to present this year's theme of Leading Mobility Innovation.

SAE World Congress provides a platform for collaboration during a critical time in our industry, when technology is advancing at an incredibly rapid pace, and society is looking to our industry for big ideas that will transform their mobility experience. I can't think of a better way to kick-off this event than with the inspiring vision of futurist and a director of engineering at Google, Ray Kurzweil, who will be the opening speaker at the Congress.

This year's World Congress will enable many companies in our industry to discuss their own efforts to create new and more efficient forms of mobility for the next generation. It promises to be an exciting event that will spark confidence and excitement for the role our industry plays in Leading Mobility Innovation.

Be sure to follow Honda as we announce more exciting news before April's SAE 2015 World Congress at #SAEcongress #YearofHonda."
