THE AUTOMOTIVE INDUSTRY IS TRANSFORMING


We are heavily involved in the automotive sector's transition to electric, connected and autonomous vehicles, and whether the topic is:

  • strategic alliances and joint ventures for EVs or EV charging and batteries;
  • development and advanced manufacturing;
  • the decarbonisation and ESG agenda, related green claims and emissions litigation; or
  • connectivity, data and cyber-security for artificial intelligence and smart vehicle technology, there is a high likelihood we have done some of the thinking before, and would be keen to see how we can help support you.

As well as supporting on the 'business-as-usual', we have advised on some of the most significant transformational projects in the sector such as:

  • the alliance between Volkswagen and Ford Motor Company to develop, manufacture and supply vehicles jointly;
  • the switch from the traditional dealership sales network to one of agency and direct sales for OEMs;
  • energy infrastructure projects required to secure 100% renewable energy power to be used in manufacturing for Nissan.

The automotive industry is international, and so is our reach. We advise our automotive OEM and top- tier supplier clients across the globe from team members throughout our international network of offices .
