Several factors have affected how the American auto industry now positions itself on the world market, and big changes have been made to reflect this new direction. The introduction of new technologies in vehicles, the growing market for cars in new developing markets, the impact of the industry on the environment, legislative responses and demands, as well as the increased expectations from consumers, are some of the factors. More international cars are being designed, manufactured and bought by American consumers and exported to foreign markets today than those exclusively manufactured by American companies, redefining the American auto industry, while having a positive impact on its economy. International brands accounted for 45% of total sales in the U.S. in 2013 and have now risen to 59% of the market, and continue to grow. While the amount of American cars has decreased in the local U.S. market share to international ones, the increase of foreign car production on U.S. soil has had the effect of creating new jobs for Americans both in the auto industry as well as in related new industries. The industry has seen huge growth numbers in the last few years with more growth expected.

Opportunities: The external environment plays directly to Tata Motors advantage. In India the average household earned roughly 4,000 U.S. dollars, and only 38 out of every 1,000 people owned a car. With the poor economic state of India, Tata Motors was able to produce and sell the Nano car for 2,500, giving India an affordable alternative to motorcycles and scooters. Being able to produce a low-priced car is huge for Tata Motors considering the majority of India and China’s adult population do not own a car. Producing the lowest priced car on the market is putting Tata Motors in a position to corner the market in India and China. Also a huge opportunity for Tata Motors is that there are

Consumer nowadays are quite concern on the quality of the products purchased. They are more willing to pay for a premium in order to obtain a superior quality of a product rather than spend less money to get a low quality of product. Thus, quality has become an important factor in determining what car or vehicle to purchase among consumers. Previous research has suggested that consumers are keeping their cars for longer, so it is even more vital that their car be well-built and relatively inexpensive to maintain. Definitely, imported car is better as compared to local car especially in term of quality. This is because imported cars were more reliable and cheaper to maintain than domestic car. This helps consumers to save their considerable money at import car services such as for maintenance and repair over the life of the car. Even the price of domestic car is cheaper than imported car, but it require consumers to spend a lot for maintenance and repair in the future. As a smart consumer, it is essential to consider not only the initial cost, but also the overall cost of ownership for the life of the vehicle.
