Automobile Industry Profile

The history of the automobile begins as early as 1769, with the creation of steam engine automobiles capable of human transport. In 1806, the first cars powered by an internal combustion engine running on fuel gas appeared, which led to the introduction in 1885 of the ubiquitous modern gasoline- or petrol-fueled internal combustion engine. Cars powered by electric power briefly appeared at the turn of the 20th century, but largely disappeared from use until the turn of the 21st century. The early history of the automobile can be divided into a number of eras, based on the prevalent means of propulsion. Later periods were defined by trends in exterior styling, and size and utility preferences.

Pakistan industry history:

Having a country that is only sixty years old gives us a disadvantage, comparatively to other countries with far more history then us. However, Pakistan is a country full of un-exploited resources, rich in minerals, and raw materials. We have the opportunity to grow, and be among the top countries of the world. In recent years, we have been in the sights of global markets, yet continually destroy our reputation with corruption, and illegal acts around the world. If we look at the Pakistan economy over the last sixty years of existence we can see how we have progressed, and what the potential of our country is, only being pulled back by dictatorship, and propaganda in our democratic governments. We chose one particular industry, in order to do an in depth analysis to prove that Pakistan has the means for growth, with positive government help, through the implementation and maintenance of policies and regulations beneficial towards manufacturing industries. Pakistan Automobile Industry: The Pakistani automobile industry is a crucial part of our growing economy, the industry started in Pakistan in when the first automobile plant was set up in May 1949 by General Motor & Sales Co. It was set upon an experimental basis, however grew into an assembly plant for Bedford Truck, and Vauxhall cars. Seeing such progress, three major auto manufacturers from the US collaborated with Pakistani business men to set up ;Ali Automobiles to manufacture Ford Products in 1955, Haroon Industries to assemble Chrysler Dodge cars in1956, Khandawalla Industries to assemble American Motor Products in 1962, and Mack Trucks Plant in 1963.The

absence of technological knowledge, and basic professionalism, led to the demise of these organizations .However towards the end of the seventies all automobile assembly in Pakistan stopped, until 1983 when Pak Suzuki started manufacturing their vehicles in Pakistan. Further Toyota Indus Motors was set up in 1990, followed by Honda. Today we have four major automobile manufacturing industries, these include, Toyota Indus Motors, Pakistan Suzuki, Honda Atlas, and Diwan Farooq Ltd. The most recognized are Toyota, Honda, and Suzuki; producing the majority of the light weight vehicles. Processing of automobile industry: The Toyota Motor Company has taken a leading role in the world only because their vehicles are designed and produced as a result of the best possible interaction between them, their vendors and the ancillary industry. The Toyota production system is not only conceptually unique but has also proved to be the best when put into practice. It ensures negligible or zero waste, optimum product quality and reliability and thus competitiveness together with best service to customers throughout the world. (Economic Review) Pakistans view towards the automobile industry is undisputed; we know its importance and contribution towards the growth and stability of our economy. We need to understand the mechanism which is the industry. In the above passage from an article from the Economic Review, it discusses why Japan has the worlds leading automobile industries. It is because of the integration of vendors, suppliers, and supporting engineering industries. According to the Economic Review, the working of an automobile industry requires the following things. 1. The original equipment manufacturer or assembler. 2. A network of component manufacturers or vendors. 3. An ancillary or supporting engineering industry to provide assistance in design and production of required equipment, tools, jigs and fixtures.

An assembler acts as the center, it is constantly in research and development, design and final production, however there are many more diversified and complicated technologies that are involved in successful mass production. The Economic Review stated, The key areas where improvement is desired are: 1. Training and development of managerial staff to changemodify the management's attitude towards theimplementation of sound production, planning and control functions

2. The use of appropriate production techniques (not necessarily the most updated). 3. The enforcement of discipline in maintaining facilities. We believe that the Pakistan automobile industry is an important part of the countries growth process and can be a leading industry because there is room for growth and development, there still is a vast domestic market with a demand for vehicles This report was written by Economic Watch, and was also an analysis on Pakistans automobile industry, they discussed pervious and current policies that have been implemented, and they looked at government support towards the industry and how they can help develop the auto industry in Pakistan. Before the TBS was introduced the auto industry was well protected by the government but now as the import of CKD and CBU is liberalized the protection level to industry by government is decreased. We agree with their analysis, and that for us to have a successful market, there has to be some government intervention and they should help protect the local industry. It is hard for new manufacturing industries in Pakistan to compete against international organizations.

Production and Sales of Motorcycles http://www.pama.org.pk/historicaldata.htm 5 Motorcycles have become an important mode of transport for many people in Pakistan, they are not too costly, and annually almost a million motorcycles are purchased in Pakistan. Overall there has been a positive growth for the motorcycle manufacturers; the overall growth rate is the best of all locally manufactured transport vehicles. There is definitely growth opportunity for the motorcycle industry. The Pakistan Automobile industry has had its ups and downs, however overall we can see that there has been positive development in this sector. There has been a positive growth in all parts of this industry, from production and sales, to employment levels. The automobile sector is an important one for our countries future, with positive reinforcement from the government through policies and regulations; it can help boost our automobile industry towards an important and leading role in our economy. According to a study by the World Bank, the ratio for cars to

population is one is to one thousand. There is one vehicle for every thousand people in Pakistan; this alone shows the potential opportunity for growth in this particular industry. We believe that even though there has been positive growth, the growth rate itself could be better, and development can be faster. The automobile industry is important because it will not only create more jobs, it will help develop other supporting industries as well.
