The automobile industry is evolving rapidly on a worldwide basis.
Manufacturers are merging, component design and manufacture are now
frequently outsourced instead of being created in-house, brands are
changing and the giant auto makers are expanding deeper into
providing financial services to car buyers. The skyrocketing price
of gas spurs developments in hybrid technology and clean diesel, as
manufacturers look for ways to improve fuel efficiency. Meanwhile,
all of the biggest, most successful firms have become totally
global in nature. Plunkett's Automobile Industry Almanac will be
your complete guide to this immense, fascinating industry. On the
car dealership side, giant, nationwide holding companies have
acquired the best dealers in major markets. Even the used car
business is being taken over by national chains. E-commerce is
having profound effects on the car industry. Consumers use the
Internet to become better informed before making a purchase. Online
sites like Autobytel steer millions of car buyers toward specific
dealers while the same sites deliver competing bids for cars,
insurance and financing in a manner that lowers costs and improves
satisfaction among consumers. Meanwhile, auto makers are using the
latest in e-commerce methods to manage their supply chains and
replenish their inventories. This exciting new book (which includes
a database on CD-ROM) is a complete reference tool for everything
you need to know about the car, truck and specialty vehicles
business, including: Automotive industry trends and market
research; Mergers, acquisitions, globalisation; Automobile
