Overview

The automotive industry has been dealing with macroeconomic uncertainty and supply chain disruption for many years, from the Covid-19 pandemic and extreme weather events to geopolitical shifts and regional conflicts.

Automotive supply chains are under pressure like never before. The tariffs introduced by the US administration in April 2025 were a shock to the global trade order, but for logistics leaders, they represented just the latest disruption to navigate in already complex operations.

This whitepaper presents the inaugural Automotive Inbound Logistics Survey 2025, developed by Automotive Logistics in partnership with DP World. Drawing on insights from more than 340 senior executives across the global automotive supply chain, the survey highlights industry sentiment, challenges, strategies, and priorities. Designed as an annual benchmark, it provides actionable insights to help stakeholders navigate uncertainty and build resilient, future-ready operations.
