Vehicle electrification, new opportunities, as well as the challenges of software, autonomous driving, connectivity and increasingly strict emissions legislation in more and more markets are fundamentally changing the landscape in the automotive industry. Customer expectations – whether end customers or OEMs for suppliers – are changing massively. Only those who keep pace will be able to claim pole position in the future. At the same time, the field is opening up for new competitors with comprehensive software expertise, who often find it easier to build hardware. The ongoing trend towards software-defined vehicles is leading to a necessary rethink in the historically evolved core business of the German automotive industry, demanding new business models, new collaborations and new offerings that take an integrated approach to mobility. And as if the challenges of transformation were not enough, the geopolitical and macroeconomic environment, especially in Europe, remains dominated by major disruptions. Innovation and adaptability are becoming success-determining factors that – despite increasing cost pressure in all market segments – also require financial support and entrepreneurial agility. The race to be at the forefront of global competition is in full swing. All competitors want to be in the fast lane – there is no time for a pit stop.
