AUTOMOBILE INDUSTRY
 It designs, develops, manufactures, markets, and sells the world's
motor vehicles. In2009, more than 60 million motor vehicles,
including cars and commercial vehicles were produced worldwide.
About 250 million vehicles are in use in the United States. Around
the world, there were about 806 million cars and light trucks on the
road in 2007. In 2008, with rapidly rising oil prices, industries such as the
automotive industry, are experiencing a combination of pricing pressures from raw
material costs and changes in consumer buying habits. The first practical
automobile with a Petrol engine was built by Karl Benz in 1885 in Mannheim,
Germany.

AUTOMOBILE INDUSTRY IN INDIA
 The automobile industry in India is the ninth largest in the world with an annual
production of over 2.3 million units in 2008. In 2009, India emerged as Asia's
fourth largest exporter of automobiles, behind Japan, South Korea and Thailand.
Following economic liberalization in India in 1991, the Indian automotive industry
has demonstrated sustained growth as a result of increased competitiveness and
relaxed restrictions. India has emerged as one of the world's largest manufacturers
of small cars. According to New York Times, India's strong engineering base and
expertise in the manufacturing of low-cost, fuel-efficient cars has resulted in the
expansion of manufacturing facilities of several automobile companies like
Hyundai Motors, Nissan, Toyota, Volkswagen and Suzuki.
GROWTH IN AUTOMOBILE SECTOR
IN INDIA
 The passenger cars & motorcycle segment in Indian auto industry is growing by 8-9
percent. The Indian automobile industry crossed a landmark with total vehicle
production of 10 million units. India, sourcing base for global auto majors.
Passenger car and motorcycle segment is set to grow by 8-9%.The two-wheeler
segment will clock 11.5% rise by 2007.Commercial vehicle to grow by 5.2 per
cent. Estimated component market size is US$ 6.7 bn. Honda, Suzuki, general
motors and Hyundai, the global automakers had already launched their premium
suvs in the market to broaden their portfolio and create product excitement in the
segment estimated at about 10,000 units annually. The commercial vehicles are
likely to grow at a CAGR of 5.2 per cent. Heavy commercial vehicles market
would rise at 5.5 per cent and sales of light buses and trucks would achieve 4.7 per
cent growth. For the tractors, the report predicts a growth at 4.6 per cent.

 Riding on recovery in auto sales and retail health segments, the general insurance
industry recorded 13.4 per cent growth in gross premium collected during the last
financial year. The industry collected gross premium of Rs 34,627 crore in 2009-
10 compared with Rs 30,528 crore in 2008-09. In 2009-10, the automobile industry
recorded 26.41 per cent growth in sales, according to data from the Society of
Indian Automobile Manufacturers. Auto insurance contributes around 40-45 per
cent of the total premium collected by the general insurance industry
SCOPE OF AUTOMOBILE INDUSTRY
 The Indian automobile industry is going through a phase of rapid change and high
growth. With new projects coming up on a regular basis, the industry is undergoing
technological change. The major players are expanding their plants and focusing
on mass customization, mass production, etc. Nearly every automobile company is
investing at a higher rate than ever before to achieve a high growth trajectory. It is
expected that by the end of 2010 Indian automobile sector will be investing a huge
amount as Rs. 30,000 crores. Maruti Udyog has plans of investing Rs. 6,500
crores; the Tata Motors is coming up with more investment of Rs. 2,000 crores in
its compact car project. Not only the Indian companies but also foreign players like
Hyundai are coming up with the investment of more than Rs. 3,800 crores in India.
The Indian automobile sector is experiencing changes in every arena. Changes in
the looks of the vehicles are taking place; the vehicles are being made more user-
friendly. Investment is leading to the employment growth in the sector. With the
emergence of new projects and introduction of technological advancements, the
focus is more on the skilled and experienced human resource. The companies are
looking for skilled and hard working people who can give their best to the
organization. The engineers in the automotive or electrical or mechanical field are
in demand.
CAREER IN AUTOMOBILE INDUSTRY
 Many job opportunities are available for the candidates with degree courses and
diploma courses. Some of the automobile companies require IT specializations.
The technical education is offered by plenty of engineering and polytechnic
colleges in India. The eligible candidates are selected by the companies and then
trained properly. Considering the wide scope of Automobile sector, it is not
surprising that more and more candidates are dreaming to develop a career in
Automobile Industry. Now, with so many foreign automobile companies like
Volkswagen, Audi, Renault etc. targeting India as a base for manufacturing cars,
the scope for a career in Automobile Industry is rising rapidly. Some of the

SCOPE OF MECHANICAL ENGINEERING IN
AUTOMOBILE SECTOR
 The scope of mechanical engineering in automobile sector is increasing rapidly
worldwide. As the competition in automobile sector has increased and therefore, in
future there will be more demand of mechanical engineers. Mechanical
engineering skills are involved in many of the fields of the automobile industry.
Calculation of the required power for a car, dimensioning of the mechanical parts
(i.e. crank shaft, cylinder-s wall, etc.), calculation of the required cooling system,
crash energy absorbing devices, ABS and brakes calculation, steering devices,
hydraulics and pneumatics involved in the car design, energy saving and, recently,
hybrid cars have brought electric motors and controls into the automotive field.
An example of the calculations made by mechanical engineers, is the definition of
the proper engine valve opening and closing and the related cam shaft shape, as
well as the definition of the type and size of the fuel pump
