Comité des Constructeurs Français d’Automobiles Comité des Constructeurs Français d’Automobiles Comité des Constructeurs Français d’Automobiles (CCFA) is the French automobile manufacturers’ trade association. It has seven members: Alpine, Automobiles Citroën, Heuliez, Panhard & Levassor, Automobiles Peugeot, Renault and Renault Trucks. Its mission is to study and defend the business and industrial interests—excluding labor issues— of all French automobile manufacturers at both the national and international levels. CCFA’s activities encompass information, analysis and communication for its members as well as for government agencies, public officials, the media and the general public. Other sectors of the automotive industry—parts and equipment manufacturers, dealers, body manufacturers, etc.—have their own trade associations (FIEV, CNPA, Fédération des Industries Mécaniques, Fédération de la Plasturgie, etc.). Foreign manufacturers are represented by their own association (CSIAM). CCFA is associated with the Brussels-based ACEA, the European Automobile Manufacturers Association.

    Cross-Country Comparison of Substitution Patterns in the European Car Market

    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Research Papers in Economics Cross-country comparison of substitution patterns in the European car market Paper submitted to obtain the degree of Master of Advanced Studies in Economics Faculty of Business and Economics K.U. Leuven, Belgium Supervisor: Frank Verboven. Discussant: Patrick Van Cayseele Candidate: Victoria Oliinik January 2007 Abstract AIMS. Using recent data on sales, prices and product characteris- tics of new passenger vehicles sold in Europe’s seven largest markets during years 2000 through 2005, I estimate a demand function us- ing two approaches to the differentiated product demand estimation: the Logit and the Nested Logit. For the Nested Logit model, I use nests that roughly correspond to segmentation used in the automo- bile industry. I then compare substitution patterns resulting from Logit and Nested Logit specifications across countries and segments. FINDINGS. Regression outcomes demonstrate strong evidence of seg- mentation. Consumer preferences are strongly correlated for the most basic as well as for the luxury and sports segments, whereas core seg- ments display more heterogeneity. While car size preference varies across countries, Europeans typically like high and wide cars and dis- like long cars. Engine performance appreciation appears to have a curved shape: consumers are willing to pay for a fast car but at a de- creasing rate. Compared to their neighbors, Germans shop the most for premium brands yet display strongest price sensitivity, whereas most concerned about fuel consumption are the Brits. Aside from a few exceptions, all elasticities are within expected range, substitu- tion patterns vary mainly across segments but follow a similar pattern across countries.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY – FIVE KEY TRENDS 4 FIVE KEY TRENDS Five major trends seem likely to dominate the developments in the mobility landscape over the coming decade. While each individual trend may not represent a significant shift, their overall effect could revolutionise attitudes to motor vehicles.

    WALTER DE SILVA with an Unquestionable Talent for Drawing, A

    WALTER DE SILVA With an unquestionable talent for drawing, a love for cars since childhood and a strong and resolute personality, he began his professional career in 1972 in Turin as a Junior Stylist at the Fiat Style Centre. In 1975 he joined the Rodolfo Bonetto firm in Milan where he was responsible for interior car design. Franco Mantegazza and Renzo Piano asked him to head the Idea Institute Design Department from 1979 to 1986. The Fiat VSS was designed in those years, an experimental, subsystems-based car, the first example of modular design in the automotive sector. After a short period with “Trussardi Design Milan”, in 1986 De Silva was invited by Alfa Romeo’s Rudolf Hruska to become the head of the company’s Centro Stile in Milan. His dream had come true: designing for the brand he had been in love with since childhood. He designed prototypes such the “Proteo” and the “Nuvola” as well as production models such as the 156, 147 (Car of the Year in 1998 and 2000, respectively) and the 166. In 1999 he was asked by Ferdinand Piech to become Head of Design for Seat, for which he developed strategic projects such as Salsa and Tango and production models for the Spanish brand such as Leon, Salsa, Ibiza and Toledo. Prof. Piech and Martin Winterkorn invited him to become Head of Design for the Audi Group (Audi, Seat, Lamborghini). The aim was clear: to relaunch the four rings cars with a unique ad emotional design. He personally developed the new Audi style which won immediate recognition for its extraordinary design and signature single frame front.
