Abstract:

Purpose This study analyzed how Japan’s export regulations affected the imports and exports of the automobile industry, and examined whether there was a change in the trade competitiveness of the automobile industry. Design/Methodology/Approach In order to examine the degree of improvement in the automobile industry’s imports, exports, and trade competitiveness with Japan in Korea, the world and Japanese import and export statistical data of the automobile industry were aggregated for five periods. In addition, the change trend in the dependence on imports and exports of automobiles and parts to Japan was examined. In addition, the change in competitiveness of the Korean automobile and parts industry to Japan was examined using the trade specialization index. Findings As a result of the analysis, it was found that the trade deficit of automobiles and parts with Japan in 2021 fell compared to 2017 and 2019. In the case of import and export dependence, there was little change in export dependence, but it was confirmed that there was a significant decrease in import dependence. Korea’s dependence on exports of automobiles and parts to Japan has decreased slightly, but its dependence on imports has decreased by 10 times, which can be interpreted as Japan receiving more trade losses in the automobile industry due to the Korea-Japan trade dispute. Research Implications In the passenger car sector, it can be evaluated that there has been a result of the boycott of Japanese products, and efforts to strengthen the competitiveness of domestic cars and diversify import lines should continue to continue this in the future. In addition, in order to continue this performance in automobile parts, efforts should be made to improve product competitiveness and import dependence in more diverse item groups in the parts.

Abstract:

Numerous studies handle analyses of revealed comparative advantages of global trade (especially in agriculture sector) using Balassa index, but the selected automobile industry represents new potentials to study. This study focuses on the competitiveness of automobile industry, which is a key sector due to its high value-added activities, a competitive market, with increasing technology requirements and high employment characteristics. The aim of our paper is to analyse the revealed comparative advantages of global automobile trade as well as the duration and stability of Balassa indices by applying Markov transition probability matrices and Kaplan-Meier survival function. The source of data is global automobile exports at HS6 level for 1997-2016. The paper has reached numerous conclusions. First, by analysing characteristics of global automobile trade, it turned out that China, USA, Japan and Germany were the biggest producers of cars, however the top exporters were Germany, Japan and Canada in the period analysed, together giving 40% of all products exported - the top10 countries, however, gave 71% of concentration. Second, our analysis has made it clear that the most traded/exported automobile product is vehicle with only sparkling ignition internal combustion (1500-300cm3) (870323) globally, giving more than 40% of all vehicle exports between 1997 and 2016. Third, the calculation of Balassa indices showed that Spain and Japan had highest comparative advantages in all periods analysed among the most important automobile exporters in the world.

Abstract:

In recent years, promoting the high-quality development of the manufacturing industry has become a major economic development strategy in China. High-quality development in automobile trade has also achieved certain results, with export volumes stabilizing and increasing. Market layout and product structure continue to be optimized, and the international competitiveness and influence of Chinese brands are constantly improving. Since 2022, Chinese automobile brands have performed well in the global automobile market, with multiple breakthroughs in overseas exports. Different from the past focus on a single market, Chinese brand automobiles are accelerating their globalization, becoming a new choice for consumers. For many domestic brands, what the era of conventional vehicles could not accomplish, everything is possible in the new energy era. Industry experts indicate that by seizing the opportunities presented by the transformation of the automobile industry towards new energy and intelligent connected vehicles, and by enhancing the independent and controllable levels of the industry and supply chain, Chinese automobile exports are expected to reach new heights.

Abstract:

With the burgeoning global concern over climate change, nations around the world are vigorously embracing the low-carbon economy. As the primary exporter of automobiles, China faces significant carbon emissions, a factor that substantially diminishes its product competitiveness in the international market and hampers efforts towards sustainable environmental development. This research paper focuses on discussing the impact of a low-carbon economy on the international competitiveness of Chinas automobile export. Through qualitative analysis, the study primarily reviews existing literature, highlighting the crucial roles played by technology factors, demand structure, and capital in shaping the industrys international competitiveness. This paper finds an inverse correlation between the average fuel consumption and Chinas automobile industrys revealed comparative advantage. This suggests that fostering a low-carbon economy could potentially enhance international competitiveness in global trade. The findings of this research hold significant implications for policy makers that they can utilize this knowledge to formulate strategies aimed at reducing carbon emissions. Hence, it propels the progression of a low-carbon economy and elevates the worldwide prestige of China's automobile industry.

Abstract:

The motive for the Korean automobile industry’s US investment is the easing of trade regulations and managing a stable supply chain by establishing local production. The Korean automobile industry has undergone major changes due to strong trade regulations since the beginning of the Trump administration and the COVID-19 pandemic. This has affected parts production, procurement, and automobile manufacturing and shaken the foundation of the automobile industry supply chain. The purpose of this study is to provide implications for additional investment decisions by analyzing the impact of the US industry and economy on the success of the automobile industry if Korean automobile companies advance into the US. This study conducted panel analysis by collecting 10 years of data to investigate the impact of economic, industrial, and infrastructure factors in each state on the success of the automobile industry. This study reflected the characteristics and investment motivation of the automobile industry. The study findings revealed that an export-oriented industrial area is suitable for strategic investment rather than a region where the economy is simply large or where all industries are developed. In addition, when making investment decisions, it is important to prioritize the internal capabilities of the company rather than external factors.

Abstract:

As in the case of many formerly inward oriented economies, South African industry is facing a new competitive environment as trade barriers fall. The initial result of this reform in trade policy has been a sharp increase in the trade deficit in the automobile and components sector. A survey of the major auto assemblers and a comparative review of the automobile sector in Brazil and India suggests that the prognosis for the future of the South African components industry is not good unless corrective action is taken. This will involve responses from a variety of stakeholders. A number of policy responses are discussed identifying both the relevant stakeholders and the policy instruments which might be utilised.

Abstract:

The study tries to investigate the key determinants of capital structure of leading automobile companies and the Automobile Industry in India. The study also tracks the theory implications, i.e. trade off vs. pecking order in these firms and the industry in general. An attempt is to see, if individually each sample company and the whole industry are influenced by the same determinants of capital structure. Pooled ordinary least squares and panel data econometric techniques such as fixed effect models are used to investigate the most significant determinants that affect the capital structure choice of 10 leading companies categorized as BSE Auto Top 100 and the Automobile Industry as a whole for a period of 14 years from 2000–2001 to 2013–2014. The study reveals some interesting facts and results. Multiple regression analysis reveals that while profitability and size are significant determinants in most of the leading companies; NDTS, Growth, and Debt service coverage ratio are not significant for these companies. While the Panel data results of the Automobile Industry as a whole reveals that profitability is the only significant determinant having negative relationship with debt equity ratio; and the other variables are insignificant. Also individual companies coefficient results shows implications of mix of pecking order and trade off theories while the panel data results of the whole Industry strongly supports the Pecking order theory.

Abstract:

The aim of this study is to investigate empirically the factors that determine the level of automobile trade in East Asian countries by taking into account government policies as well as the role of MNEs. To do so, in this study we include dummies of import substitution industrialisation (ISI) and export orientation industrialisation (EOI) policies as well as Japanese FDI as additional explanatory variables in our augmented gravity models. We found that GDPs, distance, per capita income, FTA, government policies, language and FDI are the determinants for the development of automobile industry in each country in East Asia. In the case of auto P&C, apart from economic size, the role of government through trade policy (i.e., FTA) and industrial policies as well as the role of MNCs are the major contributors to the development both exports and imports of East Asian countries. In the case of final automobiles, the role of FTA and language seems to be unimportant. Nonetheless, the role of government policies and MNCs seem to be important.

Abstract:

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to show how the National Socialist regime participated in popular commercial events such as trade fairs to posture their propaganda. I demonstrate how the inter-trade organization and one particular company – Daimler-Benz AG – tailored their advertising to the communication strategies used by the Nazi regime. Design/methodology/approach – This case study is based on the archival records of Daimler AG. The way in which the 50th anniversary of the automobile was staged at the Berlin Motor Shows of 1935 and 1936 is understood as part of the communication strategies of the German automotive industry, as well as of the Nazi regime. Findings – This paper shows how intimately connected the 50th anniversary of the automobile was to the themes of racing and motorization. The automobile as a German invention had the potential to reconcile the motorization of the German people – a sign of modernity – with the blood and soil ideology of the Nazis. The Berlin Auto Show became an important platform for this project. The paper also shows how Daimler-Benz’s approach should be read differently. Originality/value – The article sheds new light on the interaction between and inter-dependence of one particular company’s – Daimler-Benz AG’s – communication strategies and those of the Nazi regime. Furthermore, the 50th anniversary of the automobile, celebrated at the auto show in Berlin, provides a good opportunity to add exhibitions to of advertising history of the 1930 Germany.

Abstract:

The aim of this paper is determining the influence of the globalization and regional integration processes on the Brazilian automobile industry. The paper also contains the analysis of changes in the state’s industrial policy towards this sector and their influence on winning new foreign investments. The analysis also concerns changes in the MERCOSUR integration policy towards the automobile industry. It was observed that the changes that occurred in the Brazilian automobile industry in the years 1990–2006 are to a large extent a consequence of world-wide transformations in the sector, caused by globalization. On one hand, the changes consisted in modernizing the existing plants, and on the other hand – in emergence of completely new enterprises that aimed at global expansion on the so-called rising markets. This led to the increase in production, diversification of the assortment of available models, and the increase in competition on the Brazilian market.As for integration policy, the member states tried to postpone as long as possible complete liberalization of products trade in this industry within MERCOSUR. Owing to this, they were able to conduct individual policies in this sector, on one hand trying to maintain the barriers that protected their domestic markets, and on the other hand, trying to offer as much as possible to attract foreign investors. This led to numerous conflicts and great tension, chiefly between Argentina and Brazil, which endangered the process of economic integration. Still, the emerging problems were successfully overcome and the barriers for automobile industry trade within MERCOSUR were gradually eliminated. It was reflected in the rapid increase in car trade between the two countries in years 2003–2006.

Abstract:

Using finely disaggregated data at six-digit harmonized code classification level, this paper examines the patterns and determinants of horizontal and vertical intra-industry trade in the automobile and electrical appliances sectors during the past few decades among the six major Southeast Asian countries. It is found from the analysis of the data that intra-industry trade is much higher than the inter-industry trade in each of these two sectors. Further, the determinants of these two types of trade are found to differ somewhat in terms of sign and magnitude across the sectors, implying the importance of sector-specific factors as influences on the pattern of trade.

Abstract:

This paper estimates the technological progress that has occurred since 1980 in the automobile industry and the trade-offs faced when choosing between fuel economy, weight, and engine power characteristics. The results suggest that if weight, horsepower, and torque were held at their 1980 levels, fuel economy could have increased by nearly 60 percent from 1980 to 2006. Once technological progress is considered, meeting the CAFE standards adopted in 2007 will require halting the trend in weight and engine power characteristics, but little more. In contrast, the standards recently announced by the new administration, while attainable, require nontrivial "downsizing.” JEL: L50, L60

Abstract:

The globalization of the automotive industry in the last twenty years has manifested itself ina rapid increase in the assembly of automobiles and the production of automotive components and spareparts outside of the traditional centers of automotive manufacturing. On the basis of contemporary researchand literature, we can distinguish two types of emerging centers of automobile manufacturing.First are potentially large domestic markets with a low level of motor vehicle ownership and rapidlygrowing economy such as Brazil. The second type of new automobile manufacturing center consistsof the peripheries of automotive core regions such as Mexico in the case of the North American coreregion and Central Europe in the case of the Western European core region. These new growth centershave benefitted from their lower production costs compared to those of core regions and their geographicproximity to the largest automobile markets. These emerging centers of manufacturing havebecome attractive locations, especially for export-oriented manufacturing facilities operated by largetransnational automotive corporations attempting to improve their global competitiveness. The purposeof this paper is to evaluate the effect of foreign direct investment on the development of automobile productionin these three emerging regions. The paper reviews post-1990 production trends and changes inthe geography of automobile production, especially new greenfield investments in the three analyzedregions. We examine changes in international trade in Brazil, Mexico and Central Europe with a focuson automobiles and automobile parts. Based on the results of our research, we determine the effects offoreign direct investment and industrial upgrading on the role of these emerging production centers inthe global production system.

Abstract:

Nowadays, the issue of carbon emission is getting more and more attention, and China also attaches great importance to the development of the new energy industry. China is steadily developing its new energy automobile industry, and at the same time, new energy automobiles have provided a new "track" for the transformation and upgrading as well as the high-quality development of China's automobile industry. In this context, this paper provides an in-depth study of Tesla's market strategy and its impact on China's new energy vehicle market, outlining the complex interplay between market dynamics, government policies, and corporate strategies, and covering a number of important aspects, including government support, market expansion, consumer demand, competition and pricing strategies, product differentiation, infrastructure development, technological advances, and raw material foreign trade relations. Overall, these results and data show that Tesla's impact on China's new energy vehicle market is very important, intensifying the competition in China's new energy vehicle market, prompting similar new energy vehicle companies in China to innovate, improving the industrial level of China's new energy vehicle companies, and helping to improve China's policies in this area.

Abstract:

The increasing integration of the Thai automobile industry into the global economy throughout the last three decades has been influenced by a number of factors. Although the general increase in demand has created the basic precondition for global automobile firms to serve this particular market, the way in which these automobile firms operate in the Thai economy is subject to regulatory frameworks operating at different geographical scales. Indeed, the exercise of institutional power at the national and macroregional scale, regulating automobile production and trade within Thailand and the ASEAN Free Trade Area (AFTA) has a significant impact on the way in which firms embed themselves into, and how value is created within, the Thai economy. However, the network configurations of the lead firms operating in Thailand vary significantly. The way and extent to which lead firms create and enhance value within this national economy are strongly dependent on the manufactured product.

Abstract:

A questionnaire survey was conducted and analyzed with the analytic hierarchy process (AHP) to evaluate the suitability of carbon-fiber-reinforced plastic (CFRP) for use in automobile parts from an engineer’s viewpoint. The results indicated that carbon fiber has a higher potential for use in the framework than as an outer panel or exterior material. In addition, unidirectional and isotropic CFRPs can be used as alternatives to steel for higher-class automobiles. The critical evaluation criteria for carbon fiber are the material cost, safety, stiffness, and corrosion resistance. With the innovative carbon fiber project of the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry, CFRP has high potential as an alternative material for not only Class S but also Class A automobiles. In a dramatic innovation scenario with regard to the safety, stiffness, and thermal degradation of carbon fiber, CFRP was found to be a potential alternative material for more than half of the parts of Class A automobiles and several parts of Class C automobiles.

Abstract:

Purpose : This study analyzes the international competitiveness of Korean products in the Indonesian automobile market. Research design, data and methodology : The export of automotive products was extracted in terms of HS 4 and HS 6 units. The Trade Specialization Index (TSI) was calculated for Korea and Indonesia, and a Market Comparative Advantage (MCA) index was calculated for Korea, Japan, and Thailand in the Indonesian automobile market. Export statistics were extracted from the International Trade Centre Trade Map. Results : The TSI shows that Korean companies have strong competitiveness in almost all items, compared to Indonesian companies. But according to the MCA index, Korea has no long-term, strong comparative advantage. In contrast, Japan and Thailand have many long-term, strong comparative advantages, especially in the parts/equipment sectors. There, they have an absolute advantage that supports the assembly and production of Japanese automobile brands. Conclusions : The Korean automobile industry should find a chance to turn the tide. Korea should increase investment in production facilities in Indonesia, and should seek an opportunity in the conversion to electric vehicles. Also, Korean companies must watch carefully for changes in circumstances due to Indonesian government policy and FTAs.

Abstract:

During the motorisation boom in the Netherlands in the 1920s, Dutch wagonmakers started making bodies for motorised utility vehicles. Prior to this, luxury carriage builders already had made the transition to production of automobiles or the bodies for these new vehicles. For wagonmakers, the decline in demand for their traditional business and farm wagon and carts began after World War I. However, the automobile industry created many opportunities for them as well. Archival information shows that the Dutch trade associations and government agency Rijksnijverheidsdienst, played a key role in the innovation and retraining process by building a network, stimulating wagonmakers to modernise and retrain, and by transferring and developing knowledge.

Abstract:

Parallel import, as a pattern of international trade, is often under criticism because of infringement of intellectual property. However, the establishment of China (Shanghai) Pilot Free Trade Zone has contributed to the rapid development of parallel import, which has existed in the “grey zone” in China for a long time. Generally speaking, parallel import not only minimizes damages to related intellectual property owners, but also maximizes flow of goods and promotes formation of a unified market, which is beneficial to free trade and economic integration as well as the welfare of consumers. This paper investigates two industries most affected by parallel import, namely the automobile industry and the pharmaceutical industry. Two cases, “Peugeot Unfair Competition” and “Compulsory Licensing of the Indian Pharmaceutical Industry”, are analyzed. This paper draws the conclusion that the general welfare of society must be considered and a clear boundary of intellectual property rights should be established in the development of trade policies on parallel import. Effective use of parallel import can ultimately promote social development.

Abstract:

This article highlights the inventiveness of engineers that made the auto trade big business in the early 20th century. While lacking the fame and name recognition of others in the US automobile business around the time of World War I, Lloyd R. Smith’s contribution to the industry was major. The A.O. Smith frame plant stands as a vivid case study on the role of engineering and technical innovation in the emergence and growth of the automobile industry. At the start of the 20th century, the gasoline engine initially competed for popularity with the electric motor, which was used on French and English roads. The electric motor was cleaner and easier to shift. It was considered more reliable and safer. The story of the automobile is told around images and symbols of speed and power, beauty and elegance, freedom and open roads. For ASME and the mechanical engineering community, the automobile is also about technological progress and engineering achievement beginning with the 20th century and building for a100 years.

Abstract:

The continental integration of the US and Canadian automobile industries quickly followed the negotiation of a sectorial managed trade agreement—the Auto Pact—in 1965. Thus the recent Canada—US Free Trade Agreement (FTA) will likely have less short-term impact on restructuring in the auto industry than it will in most other industries. The paper begins with an analysis of the significant restructuring that occurred within the North American auto industry during the 1980s in response to the globalization of production and dramatic changes in competitive conditions. The future prospects of the industry as it enters the 1990s are examined with regard to three issues: the likely impact of the implementation of the automotive-industry provisions of the FTA; the consolidation of the significant auto-manufacturing presence in North America established by Japanese automakers during the 1980s; and the fact that, with or without the negotiation of a North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA), it appears likely that Mexico during the 1990s will become fully integrated into a truly North American automotive industry.

Abstract:

The recent GVC disconnection caused by the Russia-Ukraine war, COVID-19, US-China hegemony and technology competition requires strategic policy establishment and preparation at the national level as it goes beyond firm-level response capabilities. Since transactions under already established supply chains still account for a significant portion of trade in the perspective of firms, based on diagnosis and objective understanding of the current status, efforts are required to actively respond to changes in the global economic-security and industrial environment. Therefore, this study analyzes the current status of GVC, focusing on the electronics and automobile industries, which are the main industries that contribute the most to Korea's domestic value-added exports, and summarizes the implications related to GVC restructuring to respond to the changing trade environment. This study uses ICIO (2021), the most up-to-date data as of 2023, to analyze the results of value-added export decomposition of Korea's main export industries, electronics and automobiles. In particular, the study is meaningful in that it links recent changes centered on the US-China in the macro policy environment (country-industry) to the implications of the microscopic aspect (industry-item).

Abstract:

Energy and environmental impacts are at the top of the list of major international challenges to be addressed at intervals in the ensuing few years. With transportation being one of the foremost waste management sectors, focus has been directed towards electric vehicles because of their considerably lower dependency on fossil fuels. Nonetheless, electrical quality is presently characterized by a restricted practice range, leading makers to work on new strategies that might increase variety and charging potency. Current analysis is especially centered on increasing battery performance and reducing charging time. This study concentrates on presenting a completely unique approach: supported commutation battery stations, wherever the vehicle’s batteries are replaced with a completely charged one (available at the station), whereas new standard batteries may be created on the spot. The prevailing service station networks may be used for the replacement of electrical automobile batteries. This could be addressing the issue of long battery charging times. Through the assimilation of Trade 4.0 Key Sanctioning Technologies, individual challenges are often addressed. This can be illustrated through a holistic framework whereby the necessities for the context-aware style of the automobile itself are given and a selected answer supporting the mechanical mounting of batteries is mentioned. Keywords: electric vehicle, battery replacement, Industry 4.0, car design.
