1 TPI Truck Production Index nd Quarter Power Systems Research Global Truck Production Index (PSR-TPI) jumps 14.3%, QOQ ST. PAUL, MN (JULY 9, ) The Power Systems Research Truck Production Index (PSR-TPI) jumped from 98 to 112, or 14.3%, for the three-month period ended June 3,, compared to the first quarter of. The year-over-year (second quarter of through the second quarter of ) gain for the PSR TPI was, 111 to 112, or 1%. From the base period of the second quarter, the PSR TPI slipped a bit, dropping one point from 113 to 112. The PSR TPI measures truck production globally and across six regions: North America, China, Europe, South America, Japan & Korea and Emerging Markets. This data comes from CV Link, the proprietary database maintained by Power Systems Research. While overall global demand for medium and heavy commercial vehicles will be flat this year, the regional markets will vary widely. Production levels will remain high in North America driven by tight capacity, higher freight rates and the need for the fleets to continue replacing and expand capacity. The class 8 market will perform particularly well this year with production expected to finish around 33, 335, trucks. On a regional basis, this is what we see. North America: Demand continues to be strong in both the medium and heavy duty truck segments driven by an improved construction segment along with tight trucking capacity and higher freight rates. In the class 8 segment, orders have started to decline as build slots have all but filled up for the remainder of the year. The OEM s also have a significant backlog they are working through. South America: In South America, commercial vehicle demand is down sharply due to the poor economic conditions. In Brazil, business sentiment and consumer confidence is currently very low. This along with stricter credit standards will continue to pressure vehicle demand through the rest of this year and likely into. It will likely be 18 before demand returns to a more normal level. Japan and Korea: In Japan, the increased consumption tax which was implemented in April continues to be a drag on the economy. However, a modest recovery is expected this year. The South Korean economy continues to be sluggish primarily due to softness in their export TPI authors Chris Fisher is the senior commercial vehicle analyst at Power Systems Research. Jim Downey is vice president of global research operations at Power Systems Research.

2 markets. Commercial vehicle production for Japan and South Korea is forecasted to increase by 2.8% this year over. In, Japanese production is expected to increase by 2.7% while South Korean production is forecasted to finish 2.9% higher than last year. Europe: While medium and heavy truck demand continues to be soft, it appears the worst is over in Western Europe as demand has started to firm up. The PSR production forecast for, has been revised to reflect a 6% increase over last year. However, demand in Russia has fallen sharply and is expected to decline by 25% - 3% this year primarily due to the weakness in oil and the continued sanctions imposed by the United States and the European Union. Greater China: Despite implementing various stimulus plans, the Chinese economy continues to decline primarily due to past excesses in lending, housing and industrial overcapacity. Overall, commercial vehicle production is expected to decline by 8.4% this year with heavy truck production declining by 18%. Commercial vehicle demand is expected to remain soft during the next few years. South Asia: South Asia medium and heavy commercial vehicle production is expected to increase by 17.1% in primarily driven by Indian production. Production in India has increased sharply compared with last year. This is primarily due to the positive business sentiment, the firm freight rates, improved freight availability, a lower fuel price, easing of inflation and improved profitability of operators and an early kickin of replacement cycle. In Northern India, a number of infrastructure projects are expected to begin thus encouraging the truck owners to replace older vehicles. Also in the North, increased transportation of agricultural products bodes well for truck demand moving forward. The extension of excise concessions has further helped inspire confidence in truck owners on replacing and expanding their fleet. In January of this year, the central bank initiated monetary easing which should stimulate credit growth and boost domestic demand for goods and services. The next update of the Power Systems Research TPI will be in October and will reflect changes in the TPI during 3Q.
