Strategies to deliver lighter, stronger and more durable vehicles

The pop band Queen knew it already in the late eighties, when they released the song “I want it all”. The next 20 years proved them right. We do want it all, and this also applies for the vehicles we drive. We want a fuel efficient car. We want our cars to drive at least 300.000 km without breaking down or failing. We want a nice design, one that represents an image we can adhere to. And sure we want it to be comfortable.
Wanting is the easy part
But wanting is the easy part. It is a completely different story for manufacturers. They seek methodologies and solutions to meet their customer’s expectations. But which customer? A driver in the Swiss Alps has a completely different driving and loading habit than a citizen of a mega-city such as Shanghai or a resident in a remote village in Morocco. Although the challenges seem tough, the automotive industry is ready for the new era of durability engineering.
