KPMGs Global Auto ExecutiveSurvey 2010 is the 11th consecutiveannual survey o senior global autoexecutives carried out by KPMGInternational. This year the survey ismore extensive than in previousyears: 200 respondents rom 24countries took part in the survey
between mid-September and earlyNovember 2009, includingcompanies in the Americas, AsiaPacic, Europe, Arica and theMiddle East. All survey questionsrelate to the coming ve-yearperiod, extending to 2014, unlessspecically stated otherwise.
Each year we ask executives to describe
themselves and their companies. In earlier
surveys automakers and suppliers describing
themselves as Tier 1, Tier 2 and Tier 3
companies participated. However, the
increasing diculty o nding a large
sample o Tier 3 suppliers that are o
sucient size to participate in the survey
(with revenues in excess o US$100 million)
meant that in last years survey no respondentschose to describe themselves as Tier 3
suppliers, and results rom Tier 2 and Tier 3
suppliers in data rom earlier years were
grouped together. In the current survey
KPMG restricted the survey to Tier 1 and
Tier 2 suppliers. In almost all cases this
permits direct year-on-year comparisons
o results rom Tier 1 and Tier 2 suppliers
in only one case (noted in the text),
comparative data rom 2007 includes
some results rom Tier 3 suppliers.

3Executive Summary
Key resultsExpectations o emerging market
perormance and auto investment
accumulation have strengthened
considerably.
Overcapacity is still seen to be very high
over the ve-year period in the Americas,
Europe and Japan; M&A activity is
expected to be strong.
The long-term investment ocus remains
on new products and new technologies,
especially uel eciency.
The growth prospectAll emerging economy regions are
expected to contribute growth: not only
Asia excluding Japan, but also Eastern
Europe and Russia.
Growth expectations or Western Europe
are low, and lower still or both Japan andNorth America.
The industry still believes that overcapacity
in the established manuacturing triad
North America, Europe and Japan
remains very high.
Companies also have strong concerns
over the emergence o automotive
overcapacity in the BRICs. Concern is
highest in Russia but companies also
believe that the automotive industry
in Brazil will be overbuilt in the near to
medium term, and that China and India
will also have signicant overcapacity
not much later.
The perormance angleProtability expectations have allen.
Respondents believe best perormers will
be companies able to leverage the whole
o the supply chain, with higher prots
expected o automakers, and the lowest
expectation or Tier 3 suppliers.
Companies expect nancial conditions
to improve, but only moderately, withconditions better or consumers than
or companies.
Expectations or M&A have risen, marginally,
rom an already high level in the preceding
year, with the exception o the dealer
business, where ater a year o closure
and rationalization companies now see
M&A alling back.
Companies expect to nd ewer cost-saving
opportunities in existing businesses.
Product innovation andconsumer changeNew products and new technologies have
moved higher in the ranking o concerns
rom an already high leading position.
Fuel eciency and the environmental
prole o products continue to be
considered by companies the most
signicant consumer buying issues.
Chinese and Indian brands remain in the
top three places in terms o expectation o
market share gain, but conviction is slightly
lower than last year. Two signicant
winners o market share competition are
seen as Hyundai/Kia and VW.
Companies in all three global regions cite
exactly the same three vehicle types as top
market share gainers (hybrids, other
alternative-uel vehicles and low-cost
introduction cars).
Alternative propulsion technologies are
the key technological ocus or companies.
Electric power ranks only just behind
hybrid power developments and battery
and uel-cell approaches are ascribed
almost equal priority.
Companies say they will direct most
investment capital to technology and
new model development. New plantbuilding is accorded very low priority.
New marketsCompanies are nearly unanimous in
expecting emerging markets to build most
automotive capacity and to provide the
most growth in automotive revenues.
The majority o companies surveyed say
they intend to increase their investments
in the BRICs.
Expectations or both domestic and
export Chinese sales have increased.
The consensus view o companies on
sales growth in Brazil, India and Russia
is also strong, although Russian export
potential is not rated so highly.
Beyond the BRICs companies expect
strong demand growth and auto
investment in South East Asia and
in Eastern Europe.
Top-rated individual destinations or
auto investment beyond the BRICs
are Ukraine, Thailand and Mexico.

4 KPMG Global Auto Executive Survey 2010
Last years KPMG Global Auto Executive
Survey reported on an industry alling into
crisis. Sales were collapsing, growth
expectations were swinging rom positive
to negative, investment schedules were
being torn up, and or more than one large
company, bankruptcy loomed.
This year, we report on an industry that
has conronted the crisis, and has justbegun to emerge into a landscape o
greater stability. In many ways the crisis
was much worse than the gloomiest
predictions. Bankruptcy became a reality
or a number o large automakers, as
demand ell urther and aster than
expected, and as the ability o indebted
businesses to nance themselves simply
evaporated.
Yet the worst was avoided. Exceptional
government intervention helped to shield
the industry rom the worst o the all in
demand, and allowed some companies
to begin to rebuild themselves behind the
wall o temporary bankruptcy. Above all,
the sudden loss o condence in demand
and growth in the big emerging economies
was counteracted by an equally sudden
resurgence, as it became clear thatemerging world growth was much more
resilient than pessimists eared. The
stabilization and subsequent recovery o
asset prices against a background o less
volatile energy costs helped immeasurably.
But we are let with a world that has
changed: a deep restructuring o the
automotive industry has begun, and
continues. One dimension o this has
been a signicant transer o automotive
technology to the emerging world.
Existing producers with lower costs have
seen their businesses strengthened.
And with a global market that has clearly
shrunk, many established producers arehaving to conront the act that competition
or sales is likely to be much, much
tougher in the next ew years than any
time in the last two decades.
As one European automaker interviewed
or this report commented: this last year
has made us conront reality.

6 KPMG Global Auto Executive Survey 2010
The current survey shows that the gradual
reorientation o growth expectations away
rom the mature economies and toward
Asia and other signicant emerging
economies has passed a tipping point.
Although previous surveys show that
companies have consistently been
orecasting a decline in the growth trend
or some years, the great majority o
companies now locate all their signicantgrowth expectations or the next ve
years in the emerging world.
All emerging economy regions are
expected to contribute growth: not only
Asia (excluding Japan), but also Eastern
Europe and Russia. The balance o
expectations or Western Europe is now
even between companies expecting
some decline and companies expecting
some improvement (most expect little
change), but the balance is negative or
both Japan and North America: morecompanies now expect decline in those
regions than expect improvement.
On a regional basis, pessimism on
revenues in the Americas is strongest
in European and Asian companies.
Companies in the Americas are slightly
more positive both regarding their own
region, and on growth prospects in Asia.

8 KPMG Global Auto Executive Survey 2010
This Europe-headquartered globalautomaker with signicantmanuacturing and sales in allregions o the world says that morethan ever the key to success isproduct excellence.
My condence level has increased
signicantly in the last 12 months. A year
ago we were in the middle o nowhere
not just in the auto industry; it applied to all
businesses. Nobody knew what the next
24 months would bring. Anything was
possible. But now we have some clarity.
Consumer demand has recovered better
than we expected a year ago. It is stillgoing to take a long time to recover ully,
but the important thing is that recovery
is predictable.
I share the general aith in demand rom
the emerging markets. From the consumer
point o view these markets are simply
better placed than the US or Europe or
Japan. In the past these economies were
highly dependent on oreign direct
investment or their growth, but now they
are generating their own trade surpluses,
they have growth that is not investment-dependent, and some o them are still
beneting rom very low interest rates.
So the emerging market economies will
be airly positive over the next one to two
years. The question is, what does this
mean or autos? Weve seen a huge
increase in demand over 2009, but or the
near uture I am more doubtul about auto
demand. I dont expect a collapse, but
incentives like we have seen in China and
Brazil cannot continue orever.
As or the global picture, I think the next
ve years are going to see the industry
challenged to compete both on technology
and on cost. In technology we have a huge
challenge ahead o us, especially in CO2
reduction where expectations are enormous.
And on the cost ront there is no reason to
expect our mature-economy consumers
to become very much wealthier over the
next ew years, so there is also going to bea strong ocus on aordability.
The last year has shown us that the
winners in tough situations are always
the companies with strong products at
aordable cost. I you have weak products
you are going to suer even with a good
cost situation. That is irrespective
o segment or market

9The growth prospect
Overcapacity is now critical
For several years KPMGs Global
Executive Auto Survey has asked
companies about their perceptions o
overcapacity: the extent to which the
manuacturing capacity o the industry is
overbuilt is a key determinant o protability
now and the likely path o restructuring
through mergers, acquisitions and
divestments in the coming ve years.
In the current survey these questionswere expanded to provide an insight
into industry perceptions o regional
overcapacity. (It is worth noting that
these questions on overcapacity relate
to long-term capacity: companies were
asked to rate levels o overcapacity over
a whole business cycle, and not just
overcapacity in relation to the current
years market).
The result is one o the most striking in
the survey. Ater a year o unprecedented
change in the structure o the auto
industry, one in which automakers
including the large US manuacturers
and suppliers closed capacity around
the world, the industry still believes
that overcapacity in the established
manuacturing triad North America,
Europe and Japan remains very high.
Companies see more overcapacity in
North America than in other regions,
but in all cases the majority sees
signicant overcapacity.
Those companies that do see overcapacity,
are more likely to rate the level o
overcapacity higher in North America than
elsewhere, with a consensus o around
25 percent overcapacity, although a
signicant minority see higher levels
one in ten companies thinks overcapacity
in North America is more than 40 percent,
or example.

11The growth prospect
Emerging markets are becoming overbuilt
Given the high level o expectation o
revenue growth in the BRICs and the
high level o expressed intentions to build
investment in those economies, the act
that companies also have strong concerns
over the emergence o automotive
overcapacity in the BRICs is striking.
Companies believe that the automotive
industries in both Russia and Brazil will beoverbuilt in the near to medium term,
and that China will also have signicant
overcapacity not much later. Concern over
near-term capacities is highest in Russia,
where almost 12 percent o companies
think that overcapacity is already emerging
and 19 percent believe it will emerge
within two years.
However, it is worth noting that it is not
irrational or companies to plan investment
in locations where they believe overcapacity
is emerging: more ecient manuacturerscan always utilize ully their own investments
and make prots in an overbuilt economy.

Chapter 5: The perormance angle
Who will best be able to make prots
against this background o alling revenue
expectations? Industry expectations o
protability by company type over the next
ve years are strikingly negative especially
when companies are asked about the
protability o their own type o company.
Overall, it is unsurprising that in an era
expected to be highly competitive
companies believe that higher prots will
accrue to companies better able to leverage
the whole o the supply chain, with higher
prots expected o automakers, and the
lowest expectation or Tier 3 suppliers.
On a regional basis, protability corresponds
roughly to revenue expectations, with the
best outlook in ASPAC.

This subsidiary o a Japanese-owned global manuacturer remainsextremely cautious about long-termsales and prot prospects.
Over the last year my condence level
has not improved much. Unavorable
undamentals in the market have been with
us or some time now, but i anything it is
getting harder or people to sustain their
spending. No, Im not much more condent.
We have cut capacity. Perhaps not as much
as we should have done. I it werent or
our contract with the United Auto Workerswe would have done a lot more. We have
changed the product mix as well the old big
SUV products, or example, are just not
viable any more. Our competitive oers now
are in compact and crossover vehicles.
When we started developing small SUVs
people thought we were crazy but now we
are developing crossovers that are even
smaller, and people understand what we are
doing. These are the cars people want.
The government assistance scheme in the
US certainly had an impact, although ocourse it was not as great as we might have
hoped. Whether a company benets rom a
cash assistance program like that depends a
lot on the level o inventory it holds. We gave
up on the strategy o holding high inventory
and waiting or a miracle a long time ago
but when cash-or-clunkers came in, we
just didnt have the inventory. The Koreans
on the other hand do hold very high
inventories, so they had a home run.
Executive view: mid-size automaker US
When the cash assistance scheme ended,
sales plummeted. There just isnt the natural
demand in the market. So it is going to be
a very dicult 12 months, at least. But we
are going to have to grow our way out o it.
Government cant go on making sales or us.
Growth is the challenge, and that means
investment is the challenge. When you look
at the return on a dollar o investment in Chinaor in India, and you look at the return in the
US, the US does not look attractive. So the
uture is going to be all about operating more
eciently. We just cannot aord to waste
money on anything inecient.
The winners rom what has happened in
2009 will be primarily the Korean companies.
They have the lowest cost o production in
the US. That means they can prot in this
very weak market. But Japanese companies
also have low costs lower than the
domestic US makers, even ater all therestructuring. The Japanese also have the
culture, the camaraderie and the dedication
on the actory foor. I the domestic US
automakers cannot reproduce that, they
will never prosper.

154/Beyond crisis: challenges and opportunities
No easy cost savings expected
Falling expectations o both revenues and
protability over the next ve years imply
a continued intense concern with cost-saving
opportunities. Yet in the current survey the
overall picture is that company expectations
o nding cost-saving opportunities have
allen somewhat: in particular, there is less
expectation o nding savings through
overhead cost-reduction and supply chain
innovation, and more interest inimplementing advanced IT in design.
There is a low expectation o nding
savings through cutting wage costs
(the opportunity or making savings in
white-collar salaries is higher this years
survey is the rst in which companies
have been asked to distinguish between
wage and salary savings opportunities).
On a regional basis (results not shown
in chart) ASPAC companies are more
likely to view new design technologies as a
cost-saving opportunity. Companies in the
Americas are clearly more concerned thanother regions about salary costs and see
this as a cost opportunity, while European
companies continue to ocus more on
low-cost country sourcing.

Capital costs to remain high
The sudden contraction in late 2008 in the
availability o capital or consumers and
companies, and the increase in borrowing
costs which remain high despite low policy
interest rates, have been key components
o the auto business crisis o the last year.
In the current survey, companies were
asked or the rst time how they expected
nancial conditions or consumers and
companies to evolve.
The chart shows company expectations
o improvement. They expect the
improvement to be less apparent in
corporate nancing than in consumer
nancing, and European companies are
most pessimistic about an early return
to easy nance.

M&A set to grow
Perceptions o a continued high level o
overcapacity in the ace o a diminished
consumer market imply continuing merger
and acquisition activity. The results in the
current survey show that expectations or
M&A have risen, marginally, rom an
already high level in the preceding year
although interestingly the one exception to
that rising expectation is in the dealer
business, where ater a year o closureand rationalization companies now see
M&A alling back.
M&A is also expected in growth markets
as well as in stagnant markets: companies
believe that the rate o M&A will not only
be high in the Americas and Europe, but
also in Eastern Europe and in Asia.
Companies appear to be telling us that
M&A may be driven by high growth as
well as by overcapacity in the mature
economies. Expectations or Japan are
lower, but still highly signicant giventhe historically low rate o M&A activity
in Japan.

Debt and technology needs will drive M&A
Companies believe that a rising rate o
M&A will be driven partly by crisis actors,
and partly by the long-term imperative o
nding and developing new technology
solutions or a changing market (the
continued high stress that companies
place upon new technology development
is explored urther in chapter 6 o
this survey). So both debt and new
technologies rise in companies ratings
o the drivers o M&A, while access to
raw materials is seen as less important
against a background o alling raw material
prices during 2009. Pension and labor
costs all urther rom an already low
position in companies ratings o
M&A drivers.

When asked about their long-range
priorities, automotive companies have
consistently told KPMGs Global Auto
Executive Survey that their highest-ranking
concerns are with new technology and new
products. That remained the case in the
current survey: both new products and new
technologies have moved higher in the
ranking o concerns rom an already high
leading position in last years survey.
Cost reduction has moved slightly lower,
and, interestingly, in a reversal o trend
environmental issues are now accorded
slightly less weight than in last years
survey, suggesting that companies believe
they have already made signicant
environmental advances. Managing labor
relations remains a low priority.
Regional results show very similarpatterns, suggesting as in earlier surveys
that the broad shape o priorities remains
the same in all regions o the world: auto
companies tend to take a global view.
But there are dierences ASPAC
companies are markedly more concerned
than others with managing labor, and
markedly more concerned with product
quality (the proportion o ASPAC
companies rating it very important
as against moderately important is
high). ASPAC companies are also more
concerned with pricing, while companies
in the Americas and in Europe preer toprioritize total aordability.

Fuel eciency and environment top o consumer concerns
In qualitative interviews which accompanied
the preparation o the current survey,
companies repeatedly stated that they
believe that adaptation to changing
consumer demand will be an important
key to survival in the coming ve years.
The survey questions on drivers o
consumer buying give an insight into
just how companies will do that.
In the current survey uel eciency and the
environmental prole o products continue
to be considered by companies the most
signicant consumer buying issues. But
on a regional basis it is clear that consumer
concerns are believed to dier: the high
rating accorded to saety is due to ASPAC
companies citing this issue and on
all issues ASPAC companies are more
inclined to rate consumer preerences as
very important than are companies in
other regions. The relatively low priority
ascribed to telematics is consistent with
results last year globally, telematics
received the highest number o not
important scores. Overall, the eciency
o vehicles is believed to dominate
consumer concerns.

Low-cost producers to win most market share
Company expectations o market
share gain and loss have changed in
signicant ways. Chinese and Indian
brands remain in the top three places in
terms o expectation o market share
gain, but conviction is slightly lower
than in last years survey. Both Toyota
and Honda are expected to win market
share at a lower rate than in previous
years, and there has been a all inexpectation or Russian brands. Overall
we note that the top six rated companies
have either very strong cost or product
advantages, or both.
Two signicant winners emerge
in year-on-year comparisons:
Hyundai/Kia is one a result that may
refect the success o Korean automakers
in proting rom government sales
subsidies during 2009 and VW is the
second. Market share gain expectations
or the big three US makers remain low
and Chrysler has allen urther, although
Fiat, now the key actor in Chryslersimmediate uture, is rated higher in terms
o market share prospects than in the
previous year.
Both Mercedes and BMW are also seen
as better placed to win market share, both
companies having deed expectations o
a collapse o premium vehicle sales.

Expectations o the perormance o sales
by vehicle type show a remarkable degree
o consensus: companies in all three
global regions cite exactly the same three
vehicle types as top perormers (hybrids,
other alternative uel vehicles and low-cost
introduction cars). Expectations o declining
sales perormance are perhaps not
surprisingly ocused on larger and more
inecient vehicles, although it is notablethat companies in the Americas do not cite
luxury vehicles in their bottom three.

Hybrid technology rated clear leader
The primary importance that companies
ascribe to vehicle eciency and the
urther development o alternative
propulsion technologies is already
apparent rom earlier questions in the
current survey, as well as rom the
growing emphasis on these developments
in year-on-year responses despite
relatively low sales (see next page).
Electric power ranks only just behindhybrid power developments in the current
survey responses, and battery and
uel-cell approaches are ascribed almost
equal priority. Regional views o other
alternatives are clearly infuenced by
regional issues, particularly the extent o
installed uel inrastructure; accordingly,
ethanol is rated low priority by EMEA
companies, while LPG is considered
considerably less important in the
Americas than elsewhere.

This large US supplier believes thatthe industry has made progressin 2009, but that more needs tobe done.
I am a little bit more optimistic than I was a
year ago, but there are a lot o uncertainties.
The US is only going to sell around 10 million
cars this year. Whether the recovery weve
seen during the second hal o the year
is sustainable in 2010 is uncertain:
the economy has not bottomed yet, and
unemployment is still rising. Elsewhere,
China is still growing, although that bubblemay burst. India still has huge potential,
although whether consumers have the
money to buy cars in volume we dont yet
know. And Europe I think may have a more
dicult time next year than this, once the
ending o the government incentive
schemes hits home. But South America
will grow, and especially Brazil will grow.
My sense is that in the US people still do
not understand how things are changing.
The automakers are very busy developing
smaller cars, but whether they are goingto sell them to the US consumer is another
matter: the mindset is not there, not yet.
We are working with a number o
companies on electric cars, hybrid-cars
and super-economical vehicles. I think the
pure electric car as a mass-market product
is ten years away at least. For now, plug-in
hybrids have more potential. But in both
cases the economics o the vehicles are
unavorable. For example, we are working
on a small electric vehicle, but it will still
have to cost around $40,000 thats an
expensive car. Even with hybrids, i youdo the math then they dont really make
sense. People dont buy them or economic
reasons, because as things stand you will
never get your money back in uel savings.
It is hard to see that as a mass market
proposition.
Executive view: large Tier 1 supplier US
Overall the industry still needs to cut
capacity. It is much easier to cut capacity
in the US than it is in Europe, and that is
one reason why the big three have all cut
capacity in the US. That is something they
still have to do in Europe. The carmakers
will all need to continue moving European
production to the East to cut costs, and
they will need to cut their production in
Western Europe because there just wontbe the sales or those plants.
I think the biggest winner over the last
year has been General Motors. And it has
a pretty good model line-up now. As or
the others, Ford has had to borrow money
and that has damaged their nances.
Chrysler still has to be turned around, and
its an open question whether Fiat can
achieve that. I think European makers will
suer unless they can nd more ways to
cut costs. Even Toyota has seen a all in
US market share or the rst time. Almosteveryone has suered in some way.
For the US the question is all about demand.
The potential or selling 16 or 17 million
cars a year is there the demographics
are there. The only question is, will people
have the money to buy those cars? I dont
know the answer to that.

R&D will win most investment
When companies were asked where they
would direct investment capital, while new
technology and new model development
remained top priorities, companies also
said they would spend more on marketing
but less on logistics and much less on
new plants. The pattern o investment
intentions or suppliers remains the same
as in last years survey, but or suppliers
too the reduction in expectation o newplant building is striking. Tier 2 suppliers
are expected to show a higher propensity
to invest, refecting the concern o many
Tier 2 suppliers (supported by the results
on protability earlier in this survey) that
they need to invest to raise protability.
The responses on dealer investment
represent the views o manuacturers on
dealer businesses (dealers themselves
were not participants in the survey).
Companies believed that ASPAC dealerswill have a higher propensity to invest,
and believed that domestic and cross-
border dealer expansion will be muted,
especially in the Americas and in EMEA.
We also note companies expectation o
signicant IT and training investment in
the dealer industry; this reinorces results
rom KPMGs study o the global dealer
industry published in early 2009, which
ound that dealers themselves believe
that the industry suers rom an IT and
training decit.

Companies are nearly unanimous in
expecting emerging markets to build most
automotive capacity and to provide the
most growth in automotive revenues. The
majority o companies say they intend to
increase their investments in the BRICs
(Brazil, Russia, India and China).
O companies with existing investments in
the BRICs, most say they will increase thevalue o those investments (the number o
companies with existing investments that
say they have no plans to change their level
o investment is negligible). Those results
refect companies revenue expectations:
the strongest expectations are or revenues
rom China although a very small minority
o companies envisage revenue decline in
China. In India many more companies see
moderate growth than see strong growth,
although no companies at all envisage
revenue alls. Moderate rather than strong
growth is also the majority expectation or
Brazil. Russia is the outlier while morethan hal o all investors have expectations
o moderate or strong growth, a signicant
minority now anticipate a all in revenues
over ve years.

This India-ocused supplier, parto a group with sales o over hala billion US dollars and over 6,000employees, says that automotivedemand in emerging markets isset to grow at breakneck speed.
I am almost 100 percent more condent
than I was at this time last year, and I am
especially condent about the Indian market.
The crisis certainly had a very negative
eect on many o our customers. We saw
the worst eects in the commercial
vehicle market. Vehicle usage was down,
demand or new vehicles was down, and
it was very dicult or companies tonance new purchases. Private passenger
car demand held up better: personal
nances were more resilient than
company nances.
We have cut output, but we did that by
reducing stang, a cut o somewhere
between 20-30 percent. We have not
closed any acilities. And in the last
quarter o 2009 we stopped cutting
manpower. It is quite likely that by the end
o the rst quarter o 2010 all those job
cuts will be reversed.
We have also cut costs by reducing the
number o processes we outsource,
things like powder coating and machining.
Our strategy has been to increase the
amount o value we add in-house.
Executive view: diversied supplier emerging market
As we go into 2010 I can see a lot o M&A
opportunities. Many companies outside
o Asia are not in good shape, and we may
be able to buy them cheaply. The limiting
actor is nancing: banks have cut lending,
and we will have to rely on internal sources
o capital.
We would look or market share and or
technology. In commercial vehicles, orexample, we have the market share, but
we are concerned that we dont have
uture technology. For passenger cars
we need market share.
For the next ve years our biggest
challenges are going to be dealing with
a growing market. We have two or three
main competitors in India, and we need
to maintain market share as the market
grows. A key will be winning business
rom the worlds main OEMs as they
invest more in India.

BRIC sales orecasts continue to grow
In previous editions o this survey,
companies were asked to give specic
orecasts o domestic unit sales growth
ranges and export sales in China in ve
years time: the current survey extended
these questions to all o the BRIC markets.
Expectations or both domestic and export
Chinese sales have increased. There has
been an increase in expectation or the higherranges o domestic sales to be achieved by
2014, except in the extreme high range o
18 million plus: we believe this indicates both
a growth in optimism on and knowledge o
the Chinese market on the part o companies.
The proportion o companies expecting
export sales to pass one million within ve
years has also increased.

Expectations or the achievement o

percent o companies think that level will
be achieved by India within ve years, and
over 45 percent o companies think it will

Smaller emerging markets to gain
For companies looking or new growth
markets, the BRICs are no longer the only
game in town. Companies in KPMGs
Global Auto Executive Survey say they
expect growth and auto investment in
many other growing economies, with the
strongest expectations or Southeast Asia
and or Eastern Europe, with ASPAC
companies most ocused on the ormer
and EMEA companies on the latter.
However, ASPAC companies are shown
to be considerably more interested in
Arica than any others, refecting Asian
companies long-standing willingness to
invest in economies that others may see
as marginal. Companies in both EMEA and
the Americas are more likely to expect
investment in the Middle East.

It is striking that when asked which
individual countries outside the BRICs will
attract auto investment in the coming ve
years there are clear winners: Ukraine is
seen as the outstanding East European
destination (although on regional basis
Americas and EMEA avor Poland); Thailand
is the outstanding destination in Southeast
Asia (although on a regional basis both
ASPAC and EMEA companies preer
Malaysia over Thailand, and ASPAC
companies preer Vietnam slightly over
Malaysia). In the Middle East Morocco was
the clear leader in investment expectations,
albeit on a low base o companies responding.
In South and Central America, Mexico
emerges unsurprisingly given its
signicance as a manuacturing base or US
companies as the outstanding destination.
