The pressure of relentless price reductions

In recent years, many vehicle manufacturers continue to institute mandatory annual price reductions if financial targets are not met. These price reductions, or cost downs, are then passed through the supply chain causing deflation for suppliers.

For parts manufacturers, these relentless price reductions create ultra-competitive conditions in what is already a high investment, low-margin industry.
