The global four-wheeler industry comprises, passenger cars for personal use and vehicles that are used for commercial use. Both these segments operate under contrast market dynamics with different customer behaviors and value chain. The passenger cars segment is growing steadily due to the rising population of individuals, especially those belonging to the middle-income group, especially in the emerging countries owing to their rising purchasing power. On the contrary, the growth of commercial vehicles (CVs) is relatively flat due to lower industrial output globally.
