Global Trucking industry is driven by strong fundamentals & has long term, sustainable growth drivers given the key role played by the transportation industry towards economic growth & development globally. The market has been on the recovery path over the recent years while battling a difficult & complex global macroeconomic environment marked by a growing macroeconomic divide amongst key global economies as of late with the North American market in a cool down phase following a 12% year on year growth for heavy duty truck segment in 2015. The European MHCV market on the contrary continues to do well in 2016 after a decent 2015 wherein the heavy duty truck market registered a 19% year on year growth. However, there is a key divide amongst emerging markets with respect to economic growth & market conditions with India clearly leading the BRIC block in terms of economic growth; followed by a moderate economic growth in China while other key emerging markets, namely, Brazil & Russia face strong headwinds & a host of complex politico-economic challenges which continue to impact overall demand across these markets.

However, the significant projected growth for medium & heavy trucks sales across emerging markets over the next decade and the rapidly expanding scope of technology evolution & integration are amongst the top trends & drivers which are likely to drive industry growth & spearhead development of new business and service models as well as concepts over the next decade. Europe has played a key role in the evolution of the trucking industry globally having led & spearheaded the pace as well as direction of technology development over the decades with a number of path breaking and cutting edge technologies developed by the European OEMs. The European industry has also been instrumental in spearheading & shaping the four key latest megatrends, namely, Safety, Efficiency, Connectivity and Autonomous Driving technologies for commercial vehicles.
