Mark Fields, CEO, Ford (Code Conference 2016)
from Recode Replay · host Recode
Ford CEO Mark Fields talks with Recode's Kara Swisher and Peter Kafka about whether we're seeing the beginning of the end for private car ownership. Fields argues that cars are still important in many parts of the world but that rising city populations, autonomous cars and government regulation will reduce urban car density. He said Ford is ready to do battle with tech giants like Uber and Google, but he also wants to keep competitors like Tesla on a "level playing field" by subjecting them to the same dealership laws that Ford has to follow.
