Shifting gears to drive resilience and recovery<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The health and economic repercussions of this pandemic will force many industries to completely reinvent themselves. That is why the Capgemini Research Institute is releasing a series of research notes with pragmatic guidance on how organizations can take action on the things that matter in the wake of COVID-19.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Last week, we examined how consumer products and retail organizations can drive operational resilience and maintain their pre-crisis focus on customer relationships and engagement. This time with COVID-19 and the automotive consumer \u2013 How can automotive organizations re-engage consumers and reignite demand?<\/strong>, we broached key issues that will shape the future of the automotive industry. We showcase actions and examples that organizations can emulate to boost resilience and build their recovery plans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To these ends, we surveyed more than 11,000 consumers from 11 countries representing 62% of global annual vehicle sales and found that health and safety concerns will continue to shape consumer behavior even after this crisis subsides. There will be a marked preference for individual mobility over public and shared modes of transport. Our research also shows the rekindling of interest in vehicle ownership among younger consumers along with a preference for digital engagement channels. At the same time, however, inevitable economic fallout and trends like work-from-home could dampen demand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In a post-pandemic world, automotive organizations will have to respond to and leverage these shifting consumer trends to gain a competitive advantage. Those who are leading the way in offering a digital customer experience and innovative business models such as subscription and pay-per-use, are well placed to weather this storm. They also show us valuable lessons and examples of agile innovation for the automotive consumer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As we navigate this unprecedented crisis together, we hope that these research notes shed some light on how consumer sentiment is changing for the automotive industry.
