Coronavirus About
Coronavirus (COVID-19) has hit us hard. From ground-zero to the highest level there is no single business spared from its harsh wave. Talking about the auto industry, it is seeing some of the gloomiest times ever. We witnessed cancellation of some of the biggest auto shows, motorsports events, and recall of large-scale launch events with new cars now simply available for sale at dealerships.
However, to understand the setback the industry is facing, we got to dig a few layers. With this lethal virus spreading all over and taking thousands of lives, buying a car is no more on the list. Governments around the world are imposing lockdowns where the movement for only essentials is allowed. In such scenarios who can think about cars? No one is the obvious answer. Another worrisome question is that for how long? Well, with the current situation of the world economy, experts suggest that it might take a few months to a year before things can get back to normal. In short, hard times are here to stay for a while.
On a bit optimistic note, once things get better hygiene would be everyone’s sole priority and the auto industry would do its part by offering individuals a perfectly clean mode of transportation.
Until then, we pray for the world and hope things get better soon.
