Drive your business forward

Components

The Monthly Autocast’s forecasts delineate volume by individual model line and assembly plant over a six year horizon for every manufacturer operating in the U.S., Canada and Mexico. The scope of the report, therefore, far exceeds that of other automotive trade publications, and creates a comprehensive, yet easily workable, framework for planning.

Forecasts are presented in hard-copy or on-line formats and organized into the following components of each subscription:

Industry Outlook

Industry Outlook
This monthly report keeps you abreast of recent events by providing a written overview of the industry’s performance and analysis of how these developments will affect sales and production. Over 50 tables and graphs support this assessment, and provide a comprehensive forecast of the market’s future volume potential by OEM.

Frequency: Monthly (Hard Copy)

Model & Plant Forecast

Model & Plant Forcast
Offered as an appendix to the Industry Outlook, this forecast forms the core of The Monthly Autocast’s analysis through providing a detailed breakdown of North American production activity. Projections of volume by individual model line and assembly plant offer an independent appraisal of future volume, and highlight areas of growth and decline. Product program charts and plant capacity figures are also included.
