Autocar Professional’s March 15, 2025 Edition is out!

As software becomes the new measure of performance, this issue captures how traditional barriers to entry are falling away and creating new avenues for women in engineering, R&D, and innovation.

Despite these positive developments, progress remains slow. Women represent just 10% of the automotive manufacturing workforce, lagging behind other sectors like IT-enabled services (36%) and consumer products (22%). The issue highlights how the path to leadership positions is even more challenging, with true inclusivity still a distant goal.

We also explore how companies such as Maruti Suzuki and Mahindra Group are implementing concrete measures to foster inclusion, from all-women paint shops to female-led logistics operations.

The magazine also features stories of women in rural India breaking traditional barriers by adopting tractors and revolutionizing agricultural practices.

Additional stories cover BYD's plans for the Indian market, Honda Motorcycle & Scooters India's perspective on entering the EV space, and VE Commercial Vehicles' strategy for addressing the growing mini truck segment and last-mile delivery needs.
