Porters Five Forces Analysis:
8/7/2019 Automobile sector-Mc kinsey
9/25
The great diversity of rivals in terms of cultures and
Associated philosophies have intensified rivalry in the
industry.
China and India; in these booming markets, companies could
take advantage of the opportunities to reap handsomerewards.
The degree of rivalry in the automotive industry is further
heightened by high fixed costs associated with
manufacturing cars and trucks and the low switching costs
for consumers when buying different makes and models.

2.Threat of Substitutes:
The threat of substitutes to the automotive industry is fairly mild.
Numerous other forms of transportation are available, but none
offer the utility, convenience, independence, and value afforded by
automobiles.
The switching costs associated with using a different mode of
transportation, such as train, may be high in terms of personal time
(i.e., independence), convenience, and utility (e.g., luggage
capacity), but not necessarily monetarily (e.g., round trip train fare
on MARTA would most likely be less expensive than the cost of fuel
consumed on a similar round trip, daily parking, car insurance, and
maintenance).

3) Barriers to Entry
The barriers to enter the automotive industry are substantial. For a
new company, the startup capital required to establish
manufacturing capacity to achieve minimum efficient scale is
prohibitive.
All of the large automotive companies have globalized and entered
foreign markets with varying degrees of success.
Although the barriers to new companies are substantial,
established companies are entering new markets through strategic
partnerships or through buying out or merging with other
companies.

industrys favor.

Consumers wield the greatest power in this relationship due to
the fairly standardized nature of the automotive commodity (a
vehicle) and the low
