1. Introduction
The headline of McKinsey & Company’s study of “Automotive suppliers: Opportunities prevail, but introduce new challenges as
well,” stands out with the following statement:
“Global market volume will double by 2020, up to 2 trillion Euros. Opportunities will arise especially in Asia and
through new technologies. Volatility, capital requirements and skill shortages are going to be the biggest
challenges”
If this study is analyzed in the context of the statistics published in January 2013 by the Austrian Business Agency, who is
Austria’s new company establishment consultant, and one takes into account the present structure of the Austrian automotive
industry, which is set up for worldwide export, it will be clear that the Austrian automotive market is in good shape for
expected competition in the future.
The great diversification in product range ensures continuous expansion of the market segment “automotive made in Austria.”
Some facts from 2012
23 billion Euros in sales per year get generated by
365,000 jobs in some
700 companies of the automotive sector.
7.8 billion in investments flowed into the development of the Austrian automobile industry over the last 25 years.
16,000 Euros in research per job is spent in the Austrian automotive industry annually. That is twice the industry
average.
The production of complete vehicles is generally viewed as niche production as compared to international standards. The two
largest vehicle manufacturers are Magna Steyr Fahrzeugtechnik AG & Co KG (vehicle engineering & contract manufacturing)
and MAN Truck & Bus Austria AG (production of light and medium truck series). Rosenbauer International AG is a leading
manufacturer for special vehicles (fire trucks, airport vehicles). If you include motorcycles, then KTM SPORTMOTORCYCLE
GMBH should be highlighted, with a share of 8.4% of the total European market.
The Austrian automotive market is a typical supplier market and can be roughly divided into the following categories:

Chassis, including axles, brakes, suspension, steering, wheel suspension, wheels, shock absorbers ...

Transmission and engine, including exhaust, transmissions, engines, catalytic converters, fuel ...

Body, including mirrors, plates, coatings, surface engineering, pressed parts, doors ...

Electrical and electronics including acoustics, lighting, cables, wires, knobs, locking mechanisms, safety electronics ...

Interior including instruments, handles, rear view mirrors, mats, seat belts, seats, fabrics, linings ...
ARGE Automotive Supplier Industry of the Austrian Chamber of Commerce included the following information for each sector
in its brochure “Automotive Supplier Industry,” based on a study of the IWI (Institute for Industrial Research) in 2011:




Chassis (25%)
Engine (30%)
Electrical / electronics (25%)
Other parts and intermediate products for the automotive industry (29%)
Additionally, almost 40% of companies are active in two or three automotive parts sectors.
The vast majority of companies (66%) supplies its products mainly to OEMs (original equipment manufacturer) or directly to
tier 1 companies (70%). Over 40% of companies say they supply both OEMs and Tier 1 companies. Tier 2 companies comprise
31% and the remainder is 5%.

OICA is governed by the General Assembly. The organization’s operation and activities are directed by the council. The organization’s secretariat is directed by the Secretary General, who
also supervises the technical activities with the assistance of two engineers.
Austrian automotive manufacturers can be considered niche product producers based on the quantities that get produced.
Internationally renowned supplier products get produced with a high level of expertise and reliability. 99% of those products
get exported.
The increased expenses in research and development should be considered a well-applied investment for the future.
“Cooperative research,” in other words, non-university research, plays an important role in the Austrian research landscape in
addition to universities such as the Technical University of Vienna and Graz or the Johannes Kepler University of Linz.
Therefore, the regional state governments support companies that do non-university research. Some examples are as follows:
Upper Austrian Research GmbH
< http://www.uar.at/>
Upper Austrian Research GmbH is the leading organization for non-university research in Upper Austria and a key
player in the research, technology and innovation policy of the federal province of Upper Austria.

3. MEM industry in general
The Austrian automotive supplier market (700 companies) is so multi-layered in each sector, that there is plenty of
opportunity for competitors. The best opportunities arise when one can offer a high-tech product such as for example new
surface coating, lower energy costs, new cost-effective process technology and of course the further electrification of vehicle
engines.
An overview of the companies who are part of the automotive supplier market with an outline of their field of business activity
(drives, onboard network, vehicle manufacturing industry service, chassis, vehicle as a whole, interior, bodywork and most
important parts, machinery and plants for the vehicle industry, commercial vehicles, other vehicles, other parts for the
automotive industry, accessories for individualization, two-wheel vehicles) can be ordered from the Austrian Automotive
Association Service GmbH.
Electric mobility is the greatest challenge for the automotive industry in the next decade. Companies which participate in
research and development in this field are in great need. First and foremost, it’s about bringing basic research into practical
application and optimized production. Many start-up companies in the technical field have the opportunity to enter into the
automotive industry often with the support of the public sector, through funding. Those young flexible companies with
technological know-how have the greatest chances to be the winner in this trend environment. In other words it comes down to
investing today to be among the winners in the mid-term.
As already described above, the Austrian universities and research centers are to be mentioned. These are already working
together with the most important companies in the automotive cluster.
From this future perspective, the employment market in the automotive industry has already started to change slightly. This
opens up new topics, such as “automated driving” and “electrified engines.” Essential potential is in the areas of components,
traction battery, power electronics, electric motor and body. The biggest job growth is expected in the machinery and
electronics industry; metal and electrical industry.
Electric vehicles / Hybrid vehicles
Because of the changes in the drive system of vehicles, significant changes are being made in the required technologies and
production. The necessary infrastructure for the after-sales activities such as workshops, waste disposal and energy must also
be provided.
The change seen internationally, from conventional cars to the fuel cell electric vehicle / battery electric vehicle / plug-in
hybrid electric vehicle will continue to increase over the years. It won’t be a hype trigger but it will be steadily increasing.
The internal combustion engine will still be further developed, but will more and more take on the function of a “range
extender.” An optimal design having few operating points would result in substantial space reduction and fuel economy.
There will be a significant change in the transmission as it relates to the electrification of vehicles. The conventional highly
complex multi-stage transmission will be reduced to a single-stage transmission. The advantage is that it will be easier to
produce.
- Battery management is a new subject, comprised of monitoring battery conditions and sensors. There are already
numerous activities and achievements in this field.

- Power electronics for the conversion of DC current from the batteries to supply the AC current motor is already viewed as
mature technology with a variety of vendors; however, research is still being done for improvements.
- Lightweight bodies with a savings target of 25% are a technological challenge. In this case, isolation plays an important
role as well, because the waste heat from a conventional internal combustion engine cannot be used in an electric vehicle. The
important factor is to prevent energy-consuming heating and cooling. Research in this area is under way.
- Charging stations, the energy supplier for electric vehicles, will grow considerably in numbers in the coming years. Only a
nationwide network of charging stations will bring acceptance and an increase in sales of electric vehicles. Some Austrian
companies are already offering different solutions. A unified international standardization would accelerate this.
The European Commission study “SMART 2010 / 0064-definition of necessary transportation and infrastructure
systems for automated driving” laid out the requirements for automotive producers for the next two decades already in 2010.
The study describes the range of required vehicles and infrastructure systems, including a clear definition of ICT requirements
which are necessary for automated driving. Moreover, the study recommends a realistic step-for-step approach to meet these
new requirements.
- Automated driving
This is currently still at the research stage. International companies, Mercedes-Benz, General Motors, Continental Automotive
Systems, Inc. Autoliv, Bosch, Nissan, Toyota, Audi, Volvo, Vislab from the University of Parma, Oxford University and Google
are working on prototypes. Austrian companies and research institutions are only marginally involved here.
