  • Iam...absolutely mesmerized by some of the double-digit performances that ive seen coming out of the supplier base. And unfortunately, when i see this, my blood pressure goes up, Marchionne, CEO FCA The car has to adapt to what Apple is doing, to what Google is doing, and thats an uncomfortable situation and not one automakers have been in, in the past, Mr. Singh, Qualcomm Luxury vehicles and trucks, including pickups and large SUVs account for 14% of global car sales but 60% of sector profits, Dan Ammann, President GM European suppliers as Faurecia and Valeo have a five-to 10-year window for above-average organic growth because of automotive megatrends, John Stanley, Automotive News Europe 2

  • 1. Markets First increase in registrations since 2007: +5,7% Spain: +18% Stagnation in France Collapse of the Russian market: -35% Forecast: +3 to 4% in 2015 Sales in the US plunged over 6,5m to 10m between 2007 and 2009, but after 6 years of growth, they have reached the again the pre- crisis level of 17 m. (however what goes up, must go down sometime...) Global light vehicle production will increase from 82,6m in 2014 to 105m in 2018 Non-NAFTA vehicle imports in the US peaked at 26% in 2009 but declined since to 21% nowadays, in large part thanks to expansion of car production in Mexico (8 new assembly lines are expected to come online in the country until 2020 representing 2m extra- capacity) 3

  • 2. Strategic alliances ZF (9th) acquired TRW (9th)to create the global No.2 (behind Bosch but surpassing Denso) for about $11-12bn ZF (Friedrichshaven): powertrains and chassis, TRW (Michigan): worlds biggest car-safety equipment supplier (airbags, collision sensors, braking-and steering equipment) As part of the agreement Bosch will take over the 50% share of ZF in their joint-venture for steering systems (expected antitrust issues) Rationale: The deal bring together under one roof all the technologies needed to have a fully automated vehicle ZF wants a bigger foothold in the market for self-driving and connected cars 6

  • Self-driving cars Combination of radars, (infrared) cameras, sensors and powerful, high-speed (real time) computers, big data Together with Adaptive cruise control Advanced mapping Collision avoidance systems automatic steering (lane changing) Vehicle-to-vehicle communication by wireless transponders Strong back-up systems to guarantee safety Technological disruption, new paradigm Cars belong to the evolution of the internet of things: highly sophisticated autonomous and connected mobile computers Value added will shift to companies developing software and electronic content (like in the mobile phone business) the one that controls the brain (the operating system) will also control the value So carmakers and suppliers will have to invest heavily in building their software capability, but also standalone software companies will enter the sector Tipping point is near as long as the cars are designed to assist the driver For cars without steering wheel and pedals, there are still many roadblocks: legal, infrastructure, technology, price 30
  • Slide 31
  • Roadmap for self-driving cars 2016: proliferation of driver assistance technology 2020: self-driving on highways: accelerating, braking and changing lanes 2025: computer-controlled driving (with the driver able to take control and override autonomous functions) ?: fully driverless cars 31

  • Platform strategy Move to megaplatforms Enormous economies of scale Lower development costs Faster times to market Ability to build multiple cars on one line VW has a substantial head start by shifting from integral to modular platforms (toolkits) which enables to vary the basic dimensions of a car built off a specific platform The MQB platform will underpin 6m cars and 40 models with different wheelbases, track widths, wheel sizes and seat positions VW invests 50 bn in development costs and capital expenditure to launch MQB But so far MQB hasnt delivered the expected savings VW has been hoping for Renault-Nissan is closest to achieving VWs scale: by 2020 it will have 70% of its cars built on 3 platforms (with 3,5m cars built on the CMF B (the common module family including the Clio PSA: from 7 to 2 in 2022. Its new Efficient Modular Platform EMP2 will built 11 models and 1,5m cars by 2018 GM: from 14 in 2015 to 4 in 2025 32
