The Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders (SMMT) has issued a call to action, urging the incoming government to forge a strong partnership with the automotive industry. This collaborative effort, outlined in the “Vision 2035 – Ready to Grow” report, is aimed at unlocking the industry’s full potential and securing £50 billion in growth.
The SMMT emphasizes that this strategic cooperation is essential to ensure the long-term prosperity and competitiveness of the British automotive sector. By working together, the government and the industry can drive innovation, foster sustainable practices, and create high-value jobs, ultimately contributing to the economic well-being of the nation.
This call highlights the critical need for policies that support investment, encourage research and development, and promote the adoption of new technologies within the automotive landscape. The SMMT’s initiative presents a clear roadmap for the government to help the automotive industry thrive by removing barriers, streamlining regulations, and providing opportunities for the sector to boost its contribution to both the economy and the transition to sustainable mobility.
