The global crisis the automotive industry has slipped into over the
second half of 2008 has set a fierce spotlight not only on which
cars are the right ones to bring to the market but also on how
these cars are developed. Be it OEMs developing new models,
suppliers integerating themselves deeper into the development
processes of different OEMs, analysts estimating economical risks
and opportunities of automotive investments, or even governments
creating and evaluating scenarios for financial aid for suffering
automotive companies: At the end of the day, it is absolutely
indispensable to comprehensively understand the processes of auto-
tive development - the core subject of this book. Let's face it:
More than a century after Carl Benz, Wilhelm Maybach and Gottlieb
Daimler developed and produced their first motor vehicles, the
overall concept of passenger cars has not changed much. Even though
components have been considerably optimized since then, motor cars
in the 21st century are still driven by combustion engines that
transmit their propulsive power to the road s- face via gearboxes,
transmission shafts and wheels, which together with spri- damper
units allow driving stability and ride comfort. Vehicles are still
navigated by means of a steering wheel that turns the front wheels,
and the required control elements are still located on a dashboard
in front of the driver who operates the car sitting in a seat.
