Automobile Industry
• Definition : An industry that deals with manufacturing,
designing , marketing and selling of vehicles and spare parts.

History
• Dates back in the early 1860s in Europe and United States
during mass production.
• Evolved due to technological advancement and globalization.
• From gasoline cars to hybrid and electric cars

Lessons from the Vehicle
Industry
• Environmental Awareness
Global warming results from harmful gases such as carbon
dioxide (from gasoline cars)that affect the ozone layer.
Energy needs conservation for future generation through the
use of renewable energy and, manufacture of electric cars and
hybrid cars such as Tesla Model(Wang & Xu 2010, p. 68).

Cont.’
• Advantages of the new Cars
Are easy to use
Do not emit CO2 to the environment hence preserve ozone
layer.
Uses alternative sources of energy such as solar

Cont.’…
• Technological Innovations
 Technological adjustments leads towards adoption of hybrid
and electric cars.
Autonomous car systems such as Autonomous Emergency
Braking reducing unnecessary car collisions
The ambient interior lighting adjusts into different colors as
the user’s preferences.

Cont.’..
Adaptive Cruise Control takes pictures to analyze the
surrounding environment hence prevent drivers from running
onto things that might be invisible.
The radar sensor adjust car’s speed in accordance to the
distance between the car and the vehicles ahead hence
reducing any possible accident.
Smartphone dashboard allows easy calling, texting, and even
accessing Google Map for direction (Chambers 2017, p. 72).

Cont.’…
• Economic Growth
Source of employment- About 4 million of people are directly
or indirectly employed in various aspects of the vehicle
industry, from manufacturing, distribution, marketing and
selling.
Source of revenue to the respective governments through the
charged taxes and exportation such as in Japan

Cont.’…
Automobile industry supports growth of other industries such
as steel and rubber industries, that acts as suppliers to the
vehicle industry(Sierzchula et al. 2012, p. 84).

Conclusion
• Automobile industry covers various aspects of car from
manufacturing to the selling to the final user.
• Numerous lessons have been learnt from the industry, such as
the historical background, technological adjustment,
economic growth, environmental adjustment.
• The industry have benefited human in various aspects.
• Millions of people benefit either directly or indirectly from the
Automobile industry
