The implications for key stakeholders
• The UK is considered an attractive and open place to do business
• Long-term automotive priorities are intertwined with the energy system
• The UK has a continuing role in ICE research-to-manufacture, but ICE demand will decline as we transition to zero tailpipe emission vehicles
• The best long-term potential is found in technologies compatible with megatrends, resilient to foreseeable future energy scenarios and with cross-sector application
• Sustainable lightweight solutions, traction battery and high performance traction motor and power electronics systems offer good potential for the UK
• There is a window of opportunity for a low volume Tier 1 and high volume Tier 2+ supply chain aligned with UK OEM demand; collaboration is required to capitalise
• We need to secure FDI in high volume manufacturing of future propulsion systems to mitigate the effect of decreasing ICE demand and drive further Tier 2+ demand
• There is opportunity to better market specific UK capabilities on the global stage
