→ The entire auto market is experiencing higher inventory levels, not just Stellantis → Fixed costs and higher labor costs push automakers to produce more cars to achieve economies of scale. → Increased interest rates are raising monthly payments, making new vehicles less affordable. → #EV sales are impacted by it just as more expensive ICE models → Pure EV players have a competitive advantage with their direct-to-consumer model, enabling better demand alignment to production (pull vs push). → Rising insurance costs add to the overall expense of owning a new car. → There is a growing demand for more affordable and value-driven vehicles. → Broader economic conditions are impacting consumers’ ability to purchase new cars. → Automakers are rethinking pricing, dealer models, and inventory strategies to address these challenges. → They need to consider vehicle size, prices and customer experience to better meet consumer demand. #electricvehicle #Innovation #automotiveindustry #Technology #Future #Futurism #Markets #Entrepreneurship #Management #Creativity #DigitalMarketing #Sustainability

🚗 Why OEM vs. Supplier Profit Margins Matter to Dealerships and Garages 📈 The automotive industry is experiencing a significant shift. For the 13th straight quarter, OEMs have outpaced suppliers in profit margins, averaging 7.8% in Q1 2024 compared to suppliers' 5.6%. While this might seem like a concern for the supply chain, there is also potential: 1️⃣ Better Collaboration: OEMs are increasingly focused on cost reduction and efficiency improvements, which means they’re more invested than ever in supporting their supply chain - including the dealerships and garages that play a critical role in customer satisfaction. This could lead to better collaboration, improved service, and more innovative solutions at the ground level. 2️⃣ Enhanced Service Offerings: With OEMs needing to maintain profitability amidst rising costs, they’re likely to invest in higher-margin service offerings. For dealerships and garages, this translates to more opportunities to offer premium services, boost customer loyalty, and ultimately, increase your own margins. 3️⃣ Resilience and Adaptation: The ongoing margin squeeze for suppliers is prompting innovation across the board. As OEMs and suppliers work together to navigate these challenges, dealerships and garages stand to benefit from more reliable and cost-effective parts, leading to smoother operations and happier customers. 👉 The takeaway? While OEMs and suppliers face margin pressures, the ripple effect could create new opportunities for dealerships and garages to thrive. It’s all about staying agile, leveraging stronger partnerships, and focusing on the customer experience. What strategies are you implementing to stay ahead in this evolving landscape? Share your thoughts below!

An important article from Automotive News on the perspective of Suppliers in the EV transition and what it takes to change strategies. The battle for talent in automotive/transportation is crucial so that we can have the best and brightest minds solving the mobility needs of the next generation. Changing strategies and adapting to customer needs may sound easy, but has many flow-down effects in the automotive industry and affect suppliers particularly as there are 5-6x the amount of employees at suppliers within automotive/transportation. https://lnkd.in/gnWY4mic
