Is it? Wouldn’t you expect the auto industry to have incentives to exaggerate their possible future accomplishments in developing faster cars because it has a direct influence on how much governments will prioritise it as a means of transport, subsidise R&D, etc.?
I wouldn’t totally defer to them, but I wouldn’t totally ignore them either. (And this is mostly besides the point since I’m overall I’m critical of using their forecasts and my argument doesn’t rest on this.)
