  In a transitioning automotive industry beset with uncertainty caused by shifting policies and consumer preference, industry observers say suppliers could potentially see a longer runway for internal combustion parts.

The article from Crain's Grand Rapids Business discusses the challenges faced by automotive suppliers in West Michigan as they navigate through 2025 amidst various disruptions. Key points include the uncertainty caused by the U.S. presidential election, potential changes in automotive policies, and the ongoing transition to electric vehicles (EVs). Suppliers are grappling with fluctuating consumer demand, supply chain issues, and the need to adapt to new technologies. The article highlights how companies are seeking stability through strategic planning, diversification of products, and investments in EV components. Additionally, there's mention of the impact of the UAW strike, which has led to production halts and further uncertainty. The overarching theme is the industry's attempt to find "shreds of certainty" in a volatile market environment, with suppliers focusing on flexibility and resilience to weather the storm of policy shifts and market changes.
