Every week sees a barrage of new announcements from the industry - with new vehicles, technologies, features, partnerships, and acquisitions announced at an increasingly frequent rate. These announcements alone often vary largely between regions and in their scale – from a new piece of technology intended specifically for one market, to a new vehicle envisioned for a global audience.

These announcements can also span further across the automotive landscape – with new legislation and regulations unveiled; new challenges faced by OEMs, suppliers, and start-ups across the supply chain; and new products unveiled by technology firms and entertainment companies designed for automotive. With such a high volume of announcements made so frequently, it can often be easy to miss the relevance, context, and significance of each one.

SBD’s series of Bi-Monthly Market Insights works to filter, highlight, and contextualize the most important announcements coming out of the industry. Further analysis works to identify their impacts in both the short-term and long-term while mapping out the best practices for responding to them. Delivered twice every month to balance with the highly changing market situation, each report provides concise insights and clear actions on a range of relevant topics.
