Charlie Rose Talks Design With Leaders From GM, Hyundai, and Tesla

 

 

Charlie Rose, that iconic PBS television interviewer who sits in the middle of a dark room, recently hosted a design discussion with some captains of our industry. It’s well worth your hour (after work, of course) as Rose is known as sort of an anti-Larry King—in other words, he actually does a world of research before his interviews. His love of technology is well documented and, in this video, it appears he’s got a car bug as well.

Rose sits down with design bosses Ed Welburn of General Motors, Joel Piaskowski of Hyundai, and Franz “Hollywood” von Holzhausen who is now at Tesla (most recently at Mazda).

I watched Rose's discussion with Bob Lutz and came away pleased with Lutz's grasp of reality.  I respect his firm belief that global warming's cause is natural (though I don't agree with it), but it is better for him to keep a tight lip on that attitude because GM is facing an outspoken environmentalist movement hostile to the company after all the bad press it had from the EV1 demolition
