In the early 15th century, the Portuguese arrived in China and the interaction of the two cultures led to a variety of new technologies, including the creation of a wheel that turned under its own power. By the 1600s, small steam-powered engine models were developed, but it was another century before a full-sized engine-powered automobile was created. The dream a carriage that moved on its own was realized only in the 18th century when the first car rolled on the streets. Steam, petroleum gas, electricity...

...SWOT- Analysis of Automotive STRENGTHS 1. Indian Automobile Industry is globally cost competitive: It is possible because of cheap labor availability and tax holidays provided by SEZs. 2. Government support: Indian government has also put Auto among its priorities 12 with 2012 target to become 10% of our GDP. 3. Indian Automotive Industry is following global accepted quality measures at a lower cost. This makes it a perfect destination for production-outsourcing of automobiles. 4. The availability large talent pool at cheap prices. 5. Availability of cheap R&D; IITs be deemed as centers of excellence for automobile research and access to latest technology. WEAKNESS The biggest and probably the only weakness of Indian automobile Industry is its slow growth in Research and Development most companies (barring TATA and M&M) do not have adequate spending on R&D in comparison to their turnover. Maruti for instance is completely dependent upon Suzuki for any new technology all of the successful cars sold by it were developed by Suzuki; Swift, A-Star (which replaced alto in other markets as New Alto), SX4, Ritz etc. This weakness will soon become history as Indian companies are catching fast in R&D and are showing strong signs of success e.g.: M&M Scorpio Hybrid, TATA Nano. Besides R&D the other weakness is political hostility (TATA Nano Singur plant) but is only a regional problem of less developed states or pro-communist states, states like Gujarat, Maharashtra...
