Emerging Competitors Identify Future Growth Potential by Establishing Themselves as End-to-end Electric Vehicle Solution Providers through an Ecosystem-based Approach
The automotive industry is undergoing a transformation as CASE technologies increasingly influence its future and diverging markets open opportunities for new players along the value chain. A shift in mindset from automotive to mobility is certainly forcing traditional car manufacturers to compete with new entrants on multiple fronts. Mobility providers (e.g., Ola), tech giants (e.g., Baidu, Apple), eCommerce giants (e.g., Amazon, Alibaba), and many others are entering the automotive market, making it complex, competitive, and fragmented. The end goal of these players is to gain a significant position in the automotive value chain while exploring various business models and expanding in this economically attractive segment.
