I wonder who some of the systems suppliers might be in the statement below. From calstart.com 09/29/98 - Auto Industry Facing Time of 'Radical Change' Paris, France - In the next 20-years, the world automotive industry will be facing radical changes that will completely alter the nature of its companies and products, according to Dr. Daniel Roos of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. His comments came during discussions of the automobile's future at the FISITA World Automotive Congress. Dr. Roos said traditional automakers are far too conservative in their view of coming changes, noting that the recent merger of Daimler and Chrysler is only a mild example of what is ahead. He foresees that in two decades today's major automakers may not be the drivers of the vehicle industry, there could be a radical shift in power to parts and system suppliers, and that completely new players, such as electronics and software firms, may be the real competitors to automakers. In the face of increasing costs, urban congestion, pollution and global warming, he said people are demanding new products, and challenged the auto industry to think carefully what business it should be in: car manufacturing, or mobility and services?
