The auto industry: on the fast track

Article Abstract:

The automobile industry is one sector which contributes to the economic development of the Basque Country. According to a survey conducted by Andersen Consulting, the auto sector in Spain has the highest quality and level of productivity but the lowest costs. Industry experts attribute the growth of Basque's auto industry to its iron and steel sectors, which are the country's key industries. Under the Basque government's economic plan, the auto industry has also formed its own cluster, ACICAE, which consists of 12 big automobile companies.
