The report brings to forefront & provides key insights as well as an incisive perspective through a comprehensive analysis of the Strategic Focus and Strategic Initiatives as well as Developments being undertaken by these 7 key Global Truck-Making companies against the backdrop of an evolving industry landscape; marked by a stark downturn across Western Europe and Latin American markets while the North American market continues with its sales growth momentum driven by replacement demand albeit showing early signs of stagnation besides the Japanese market resurgence & strong, continued demand growth trend across emerging markets in Asia, Africa & Eastern Europe.
However, stagnating order intake has been a key concern for almost all key global players so far in 2012 with almost all major OEMs aligning production levels in-line with the demand consequently. Almost, all key emerging economies on the other hand, especially China, grapple with inflationary pressures under a difficult, complex, challenging & uncertain Global Macroeconomic Environment.
Most leading OEMs, however, continue with their focus on development of new platforms as well as sustainable alternate fuel based powertrain technologies aimed at enhanced efficiency, in addition, to continued efforts towards further strengthening & deepening of existing presence across emerging markets in order to partially offset the ongoing demand slump in Western Europe & Latin America.
