Some estimates surpass 180,000 L of water per car manufactured, depending on whether tyre production is included. Production processes that use a significant volume of water include surface treatment, painting, coating, washing, cooling, air-conditioning and boilers, not counting component manufacturing. Paintshop operations consume especially large amounts of water, because equipment running on water-based products must also be cleaned with water. In this next iteration of Automotive, companies must get creative about how they reshape their products, structure their businesses, use technology, and reimagine the services and experiences they bring to their customers. In this environment, automotive organizations must balance the need for new investments in software, data, and cloud while facing mounting pressure to cut costs and preserve cash. They must adapt the way they serve the customer, while maintaining traditional sales and service models.
- Grow revenue and drive brand loyalty by offering automotive aftermarket services that exceed customer expectations.
- While Tesla, Google, and Apple currently generate significant interest, we believe that they represent just the tip of the iceberg.
- United States completely dominated the world industry for the first half of the 20th century through the invention of mass production techniques.
- By early the average price of the LCGC had risen to around IDR 140 million (approx. USD $10,500) per vehicle.
- NSK developed a high-efficiency rear wheel steering actuator with compact motor and low power consumption.
Our Future Mobility Europe online event brings together more than 1,000 stakeholders to discuss the business models, technologies and trends shaping the future of mobility. The 2020s are becoming the decade of electrification as consumer, technological and policy forces coalesce with 30% of new vehicles expected to be electric by 2030. As businesses compete for their fair share of the growing eMobility space, cooperation will be key to the creation of joint business models that have customers at their core. Automobiles are increasingly becoming sources of rich information for in-vehicle, cross-vehicle and cloud based applications that will improve performance, safety, efficiency, and entertainment.
A decade of Industry 4 0 investments: Time for review and evaluation
In the second half of the century the situation altered sharply as western European countries and Japan became major producers and exporters. Models and prototypes for efficient and effective automotive components that ready to be tested and produced massively. Models and prototypes for efficient and effective automotive component that ready to be tested and produced massively. Tata Motors also formed a joint venture in India with Fiat and gained access to Fiat’s diesel engine technology. Dongfeng Motor has a joint venture with AB Volvo called Dongfeng Nissan-Diesel.

Whatever your automotive design challenge, our analog and embedded processing products, design resources and easy sourcing and purchasing help you deliver innovation faster and prepare for the road ahead. Automotive Grade Linux is a collaborative open source project that is bringing together automakers, suppliers and technology companies to accelerate the development and adoption of a fully open software stack for the connected car. With Linux at its core, AGL is developing an open platform from the ground up that can serve as the de facto industry standard to enable rapid development of new features and technologies. The automotive industry is transforming towards an environment that depends heavily on the data that underlies the essential performance and driving experience of a vehicle. With more than 30 years of leadership in digital engineering and experience design, Capgemini helps automotive clients solidify their place in a data and software-driven industry.
Aftermarket Solutions
Transitioning automotive compute from hardware-defined to software-defined provides new services and solutions for automakers, enabling upgrades and new features to be delivered seamlessly over-the-air for a better consumer experience. The move to equip vehicles with increasingly sophisticated driver assistance systems, and eventually to make the vehicle fully autonomous, requires a combination of object detection and imaging sensors. By combining radar detectors, cameras and optical depth sensing systems such as LiDAR, a vehicle can capture a detailed, real-time view of the space around it, while building in redundancy to protect against the failure of any one sensor.
Indonesians love the MPV, known as “people carriers”, as these vehicles are bigger and taller than most other car types. Indonesians need a big car because they enjoy taking trips with the family (and/or invite some friends). Car manufacturers are aware of high MPV demand in Indonesia and therefore continue to launch new models. With functionality in check, manufacturers now particularly focus on improving the design of the MPV to entice Indonesian consumers.
