  Since 2021, the term "Metaverse" has been the most popular one, garnering a
lot of interest. Because of its contained environment and built-in computing
and networking capabilities, a modern car makes an intriguing location to host
its own little metaverse. Additionally, the travellers don't have much to do to
pass the time while traveling, making them ideal customers for immersive
services. Vetaverse (Vehicular-Metaverse), which we define as the future
continuum between vehicular industries and Metaverse, is envisioned as a
blended immersive realm that scales up to cities and countries, as digital
twins of the intelligent Transportation Systems, referred to as "TS-Metaverse",
as well as customized XR services inside each Individual Vehicle, referred to
as "IV-Metaverse". The two subcategories serve fundamentally different
purposes, namely long-term interconnection, maintenance, monitoring, and
management on scale for large transportation systems (TS), and personalized,
private, and immersive infotainment services (IV). By outlining the framework
of Vetaverse and examining important enabler technologies, we reveal this
impending trend. Additionally, we examine unresolved issues and potential
routes for future study while highlighting some intriguing Vetaverse services.
