Continental is considering spinning off and listing its struggling automotive business to separate it from the German parts maker’s more successful tires operations, Bloomberg reported. The manufacturer is evaluating “in detail” the spinoff and a subsequent 100% listing of the business that makes products including brakes and automated driving systems. Continental will make a decision in the fourth quarter, with a target to finalize any move by the end of next year. #MergersAcquisitionsDivestitures #Automotive #Manufacturing

Holman's Edward(Ted) Davis, EMBA Davis and Patrick Doyle recently spoke with Automotive Fleet to examine the latest supply chain conditions and offer their forecast for 2025. Patrick noted that nearly all OEMs have returned to open ordering across most vehicle segments. Additionally, he shared that a growing number of manufacturers are reintroducing vehicle incentives and customer-specific CAP agreements. Patrick also discussed how greater vehicle availability is influencing operating decisions throughout the entire vehicle lifecycle. Ted highlighted the upfit sector specifically and said this segment of the industry has also improved significantly over the last 12 to 24 months.
