Just as it has changed the world, the automotive industry itself continues to evolve. With this transformation comes the need to identify opportunities and deliver value. In the 21st century, the worldwide automotive industry faces huge challenges, as well as unprecedented opportunity. Competition is intense, particularly in the maturing North American, Western European and Japanese markets that have been the mainstay of most vehicle manufacturers’ profitability. Meanwhile, rising developing-country income levels are bringing millions of first-time consumers into the market for personal transportation — notably in Asia, Central Europe and Latin America.
