Entering the year carrying several challenges triggered in 2019, the global automotive industry did not have theproper footing to deal with COVID-19. Prior to the virus outbreak, the primary players across the supply chain,from OEMs down to tier 2 and 3 suppliers, had delivered guidance for lower sales and earnings in 2020.Addressing the mounting operational challenges has become front and center, placing several M&A strategieson the backburner. While the virus is highlighting the need for technology and innovation, including self-drivingcars and touchless delivery, the broader disruption is pushing out the timeline for achieving Level 4 Autonomy,which is cooling down the momentum for several automotive technologies. Despite the current pressures,transactions are getting completed and we expect an acceleration in M&A activity as the supply chains recoverand the timeline for achieving increased autonomy is shortened.

COVID-19 has added to the existing challenges that the global automotive industry is facing. Prior to thevirus outbreak, global auto sales in 2020 were forecasted to approximate 78.8 million units, representing a12% decline from 2019. While the overall industry is dealing with several challenges, COVID-19 ishighlighting the importance of technology and innovation in the automotive industry. For example, moreautonomous vehicles would increase the safe transportation of medical personnel, equipment, and supplies.Below, we have summarized some AutoTech use cases that are playing an important role in combattingCOVID-19.
Select AutoTech use cases:
Self-driving cars: COVID-19 has accelerated the need and opportunity for automation in every industry,including automotive. While consumers have historically been hesitant to embrace self-driving cars, webelieve this sentiment will change as the public witnesses more self-driving cars on the road.
Autonomous shuttles: The Mayo Clinic is using Beep autonomous shuttles to move COVID-19 tests froma Jacksonville, Florida testing site to a nearby Mayo Clinic processing location. This move frees up timefor Mayo Clinic staff to focus on patients rather than transportation, and reduces human interaction whiletransporting tests.
Contactless car deliveries: Tesla is planning to implement ‘touchless deliveries’ by making use of its appand cars’ smartphone connectivity in an effort to decrease the spread the virus. With the help of touchlessdeliveries, Tesla customers can unlock their new cars through the Tesla app at a delivery site andexchange an necessary paperwork. Not only is this solution relevant during challenging times, but it canalso be used for future remote consumer purchase processes.
Special mobility services for medical staff: Several mobility services companies have responded to theCOVID-19 outbreak. For example, DiDi Chuxing Technology Co., a Beijing-based transportationtechnology company, has arranged for more than 1,000 drivers to provide free emergency services to themedical workforce in Chinese cities, including Wuhan, Shanghai and Beijing. Such platforms could beexpanded to address other essential workers and high-risk individuals.
Manufacturers switching to produce medical devices: Several automotive giants, including GeneralMotors, Tesla, and Ford, have modified their factories in order to produce ventilators in light of supplyshortages. This highlights the importance of investing in smart manufacturing solutions capable ofadapting to short-term needs. As a result, we expect automotive companies to continue investing insmart industrial IoT manufacturing capabilities.
