In light of the forthcoming election, the Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders (SMMT) has published its Manifesto 2030, urging the next government to prioritize the enhancement of the automotive sector. This call to action centres around five key pledges, which have been designed to form the cornerstone of a dedicated industrial strategy.
First and foremost, the SMMT advocates for the delivery of low-cost zero carbon energy. This is seen as crucial in addressing the pressing issue of climate change, while also enabling the automotive industry to transition towards more sustainable practices.
Secondly, the manifesto emphasizes the importance of nurturing a skilled workforce, equipped to meet the demands of the future. With technological advancements and evolving industry standards, investing in human capital is deemed essential for the continued growth and innovation within the automotive sector.
Securing free trade deals with both existing and emerging markets forms the third pledge. This is identified as vital in fostering global partnerships and opening up new avenues of growth and opportunity for the industry.
Furthermore, the SMMT stresses the need for backing the domestic market for new electric vehicles. By providing support and incentives for consumers to embrace electric vehicles, the automotive sector can further establish itself as a leader in sustainable transportation.
In support of these pledges, the SMMT underscored the impact such measures would have on bolstering the automotive sector’s competitiveness. By proactively addressing key issues and harnessing opportunities for growth and development, the industry stands to thrive and make significant contributions to the national economy.
In conclusion, the Manifesto 2030 serves as a comprehensive roadmap for propelling the automotive sector into a new era of prosperity and sustainability. With the backing of the next government, these key pledges have the potential to transform the industry, ensuring its continued success and relevance in a rapidly evolving global landscape.
