The automotive industry is experiencing radical upheaval. This transformation is being driven by four main trends: electromobility, shared mobility services, autonomous driving and connected vehicles. The growing demand for electric cars and innovative mobility solutions shows how important the issue of sustainability has now become. Meanwhile, investors and lenders are also paying more attention: They want to understand the climate risks faced by car manufacturers and suppliers and avoid damage to reputation because of associating with climate unfriendly organizations.

This trend is accelerated both by political policies and changing consumer preferences. Some manufacturers and suppliers have already responded to these trends, at least to a certain extent. For example, they are increasing the number of electric vehicles in their range and providing flexible mobility solutions. Yet the potential is far from exhausted. There is still a long way to go to transform the automotive industry into an industry that is sustainable
