The automotive industry is among the largest and most competitive in the world. There is a constant demand for new technology, new ideas, new products, new applications and new sources. The technologies being applied to vehicles are simply amazing.

Today’s Challenges, Tomorrow’s Opportunities
 
The biggest challenge facing automakers and suppliers today is how to make a profit in a constantly changing, increasingly demanding market. Fuel Prices. Economy. Consumer confidence. Politics.

Yet, amidst challenges like these, over a span of less than two weeks, GM made these announcements …

• GM expects to introduce the new hybrid system across its brands and regions starting with North America, with annual production far exceeding 100,000 vehicles …

• The automaker plans to produce thousands of fifth-generation fuel-cell vehicles, compared with the 100 Equinox FCVs recently launched under GM's Project Driveway program …

• General Motors Corp will road test lithium-ion battery packs for the Chevrolet Volt plug-in hybrid beginning in July, slightly later than expected, Chief Executive Bob Lutz said …

That’s one automaker. When the going gets tough, the tough get going.
