Brazilian Automotive Industry THE BRAZILIAN AUTOMOTIVE INDUSTRY WAS BORN IN 1956 Though GM and Ford had local assembly plants since the 20’s, real manufacture started under President Juscelino Kubichek (1956-1960). Coherent with of the “Import Substitution” industrial development policy, in 1956 the “Automotive Industrial Executive Group” was formed VW, Marcedes Benz, Ford, GM, Scania, Willys, Simca, built their plants along the main highway connecting Sao Paulo to the port of Santos By the end of the decade Brazilian made cars and trucks were a reality In 1960 the first exports to neighboring countries take place During the 60’s, additional entrants arrived: Chrysler, Karmann Ghia, Toyota, Ford tractors, Massey Ferguson, Valmet, etc BY THE END OF THE 60’s, THE AUTOMOTIVE SEGMENTWAS ONE OF BRAZIL’S MOST IMPORTANT INDUSTRIES AND GROWING FAST
Brazilian Automotive Industry MANY HURDLES HAD TO BE OVERCOME IN THE INITAIL PHASES Non-existent local supplier base: “What does Dona (Mrs.) Mercedes actually do? Lack of skilled labor: Case of Scania’s HR manager, Gunnar Lindquist. o
“We hire workers. Minimum qualification: high-school. We’ll train you for the job
o
We hire workers. We’ll teach you how to read and write and train you for the job
Lack of demand for vehicles: Mesbla’s demand forecast of VW Beatle: o
In Brazil the rich want nice American cars
o
The nearest to a car a poor person will get to it is when washing it
o
Give up, the poor will not be able to afford cars => 20 years later Mesbla was the largest VW dealer in Brazil Source: Automotive Business (Brazil), ANFAVEA, Sindipeças

Brazilian Automotive Industry THE VIABILITY OF THE BIRTH OF INDUSTRY WAS BASED ON THE OVERALL “IMPORT SUBSTITUTION” INDUSTRIAL DEVELOPMENT POLICY OF THE GOVERNMENT Nearly 100% of the component of vehicles had to be made locally (few exceptions permitted) Importation of vehicles were forbidden As a result, it attained special characteristics
Few models
Models changes were expensive and making some survive for decades - VW Beatle produced from 1957 to 1995 - Opala by GM (based on Opel Record) lasted from 1970 to 1999
Generally speaking vehicles were based obsolete technology and commercialized at high prices relative to the rest of the world
The policy of strong protection of the “infant industry ” remained in place until early 90’s, i.e. lasted over 30 years Source: Automotive Business (Brazil), ANFAVEA, Sindipeças
Brazilian Automotive Industry THROUGHOUT ITS DEVELPMENT VARIOUS IMPORTANT CHANGES TOOK PLACE Regionalization started in the 70’s and has since continued
Plants originally concentrated near city of Sao Paulo (ABC)
In 1975 Fiat started its plant in Betim in state of Minas Gerais
In 1978 Volvo opened it factory in Curitiba, Parana
Subsequent new entrants and additional plants followed this trend
In the end of the 70, the 1st alcohol driven car program was launched and lasted until early 90s when it was phased out due to lack of demand when gasoline became cheap again In 1991, the import substitution barrier was torn down and the industry subjected to foreign competition thus heralding the current phase of internationalization of the industry, i.e. no longer Infant Industry The latest trend has been the introduction of Flex Fuel passenger cars 10 years ago which today account for 97% of production
Brazilian Automotive Industry TODAY THE BRAZILIAN AUTOMOTIVE INDUSTRY IS ONE OF THE MOST VIGOROUS IN THE WORLD. Production volumes increased from around 1.5 million units a year a decade ago to over 3,6 million in 2010 making it the 6th largest in world in terms (4th in sales volumes) The Brazilian automotive industry counts on the presence of nearly all world players, both in terms of vehicle makers and suppliers Practically unscathed during the recent recession and propelled by strong internal economic expansion, production volumes are forecasted to reach nearly 5 million units in 2015 To nourish the strong increase in volumes, investments of over USD 22 billion in the coming years are in the pipeline
