Bharat Book Bureau, a leading market information distributor has tabled a report "  Global market review of truck manufacturing - forecasts to 2011 " - http://www.bharatbook.com/detail.asp?id=24176

When this report was first published, European and North American manufacturers that dominated the global truck market. To some extent, this is still the case, with OEMs based in NAFTA, Europe and Japan leading technological developments in the industry.

But four of the world's largest manufacturers are based in Asia, and with these OEMs accounting for more than 30% of global truck production, it leaves little doubt as to where the greatest expansion is likely to be in the medium term.

This second edition of truck manufacturing report reviews the key market drivers, and updates market analysis. It provides an overview of the industry, and includes top level market sales data and production forecasts through to 2011.

Whilst the report follows the same format as the first edition, all forecasts and manufacturer profiles have been overhauled and any major changes in the truck manufacturing sector have been included.
