## MARKET ENVIRONMENT **GLOBAL ECONOMIC TRENDS 2025**

![](_page_5_Picture_1.jpeg)

IMF global economic growth expectations for 2025 still at 3.3% and for Germany only at 0.3%.(1)

![](_page_5_Picture_3.jpeg)

Potential tax cuts and deregulation offer opportunities and provide impulses; however, uncertainties persist, particularly regarding political developments in the US (e.g., tariffs for imports into the US).

Global car sales are expected to increase by 2 percent in 2025, reaching 80.4 m. vehicles.(2) In Europe, the CO₂ fleet regulation is expected to drive a significant expansion of electromobility.

Radical measures by OEMs and Tier 1 suppliers go beyond previously announced cost cuts and restructuring, while R&D investments remain under pressure due to the ongoing shift in OEM strategies and the reassessment of model portfolios.

European automakers primarily operate their R&D departments in high-wage countries near their home markets. Expectation of suppliers to create further add-value from best-cost countries.
