Elektromobilita v Automobilovém průmyslu: Rozbor trhu a Dopady

This bachelor thesis talks about the topic of electromobility in the car industry. Its main aim is to identify the impacts of electromobility on 4 affected sectors. These sectors are car industry, government and public sector, private sector and environment. Apart from the impacts, the thesis deals with possible challenging factors and evaluation of the current market of electric vehicles on a global scale. The first chapter introduces and explains the used terminology and methodology. The second chapter introduces the topic of electromobility, its fluctuating but interesting history, the current state of electromobility and the most important carmakers which for now lead the electrified movement. The third chapter deals with the comparison of the electric car market and internal combustion engine car market on a global scale. It also analyzes the 3 most important markets, where electric cars have the largest market share. The last chapter deals with the topic of the impacts of electromobility on 4 selected sectors together with the predictions of future developments of electromobility. To answer the main goal, two research questions were carried out. The first research question is: What are the different and similar trends in the global electric car market and the global internal combustion engine car market? The analytical tool used to answer the first question was Porter’s Model of Five Forces. Findings from Porter’s Model are reflected on the radar graph. The second research question is: What similar factors influence the mass application of electric cars on the market? This question is related to the 3 biggest markets for electric vehicles (China, Europe and the USA). Data of the 3 markets are presented on graphs in relevant subchapters together with additional information. The 3 biggest markets are compared through the comparison method. In the last chapter (4) the method used to evaluate the impacts of electromobility on the 4 selected sectors is called Impact Evaluation. This method uses the word „positive“ and „negative“ to assess the strength of the impact. The main contribution of this thesis is the familiarization with possible challenging factors of electromobility, evaluation of the current market of electric vehicles on a global scale and the level of impact of electromobility on the selected sectors.
