In the Automotive News Europe Congress 2013 representatives of the major players in the automation sector have advanced the need to continue working on the creation of an increasingly sustainable future.
In the 16th edition of the Automotive News Europe Congress 2013 (you can see all the information about the event on their website), which took place on June 12 in Paris, have presented their ideas for the future of the sector of automation some of major car manufacturers, component suppliers, market analysts and logistics companies like DHL, you have agreed to jointly evolve towards sustainability, for the good of the industry, the environment and their own benefits.
The first responders in Congress were precisely the automation sector responsible DHL. The chairman of this sub-sector of the logistics company Fathi Tlatli was accompanied by Vice President Fabio Sacchi and business development director Manoella Wilbaut. Together they have revealed that they are putting all their efforts to increase their participation in the process of submitting new vehicles. To do this, have a global supply all manufacturers offer complete logistic process (by air, sea, rail and road) that makes possible the feasibility of the project since the model is just a prototype until it reaches the customer end.
The following operation in the Automotive News Europe Congress 2013 came from the hand of Morgan Stanley analyst Stuart Pearson, which is not too optimistic about the immediate future of the sector in Europe. Predicts that car sales will continue to fall and only those manufacturers with an average of highest benefit from the sales price and production costs will be those better off will leave the crisis. According to Pearson the best positioned are BMW and VW Group. In fact, that it is highly possible that exceeds Audi BMW as top-selling premium brand in the world due to its success in the Chinese market.
Precisely one of the members of the steering committee of BMW, Ian Robertson, was the next step to make clear which is the position of BMW in the future. As you know, made it clear that the strategy of the Munich brand is to offer a joint bid and sustainable cars combustion efficiency measures, hybrid versions and of course the range of vehicles 'i' that BMW takes so long preparing before you get to the market and has a surprising acceptance from the public, since according to Robertson himself admitted, there are already 100,000 reservations to test this type of model and a good number of bookings already made. For this reason i3 believes that the future will be a reference model and it involves a real change in the industry. You can see the end of the BMW i3 model for the first time in September at the Frankfurt Motor Show and will go on sale later this year for a very similar to the current 3 Series.
Apart from the suppliers of parts and components, which as I said intervened to make clear its commitment to reducing costs and emissions with the aim of helping the sector to increase its profits, also involved representatives from other manufacturers, such as Dacia, which Arnaud's hand Deboeuf made it clear that they are benefiting from the trend 'donwsizing' and that, therefore, the public no longer sees them both as a brand 'low cost', but as a smart buying decision.
Finally, Luca de Meo, Head of Marketing at Audi made an intervention sobering inviting sector companies to work very hard with the aim of ensuring that the benefits accrue to the auto companies and technology companies are to be offering faster and cheaper services to users, such as electronic payments in the parking lots or gas stations. He said: "We have the technology. Coaches can connect with the outside, but we should create a standard for our products interact with the outside".
Ua upon completion of the interventions, we proceeded to the LEADER Awards (Leaders in European Automotive Development, Excellence, and Research - Leadership Development and Research Excellence Automotive in Europe), which in this Automotive News Europe Congress 2013 have been granted to Jaguar / Land Rover for their efforts to reduce the weight of their vehicles, the manufacturers ZF gearboxes for its effort to provide more efficient solutions without incurring loss of benefits and Tesla for their efforts to create a home network for proper charging their electric supercars.
