The automotive industry is suffering further disruption as a result of the war in Ukraine. The rising price of materials, oil and gas are causing economic fluctuations that are seeing rising prices for new vehicles, and increase fuel costs for drivers. This ultimately leads to questions around the transition to electric vehicles, the impact on new-car prices, and whether supply-chain issues will lead to increased demand in the used-car market, affecting residual values.
These issues and more were recently discussed in the latest Autovista24 webinar - how is the Ukraine conflict impacting Europe’s automotive markets. The presentation looked at the economic scenarios of the war on Europe, as well as the automotive disruption and forecasts for Europe’s big five markets, and the Eastern European region.
