Swot Analysis
Strengths of Ferrari:
• Extremely strong brand image.• Products that are a fine combination of beauty &
aesthetics combined with unforgettable performance.• The brand has connected to itself an aura of mystique• Is looked upon as a status symbol• Takes on new challenges on a constant basis with a head
on attitude.• Innovation & technology are key drivers behind every
product.• A very inspired, well taken care of & satisfied work-force
who are proud to be attached with the brand. This was further expressed publicly when Ferrari was voted the “Best Place to Work in Europe 2007″.
Swot Analysis
Weaknesses of Ferrari:
• Ferrari’s business model, based around low volumes, removes the possibility of employing certain technological solutions.
• That same business model also limits their sales volumes even though a lot more demand is present in the market.
• Due to their “waiting list” model, they lose out on customers to the competition.
• A big challenge lying in wait is fuel efficiency & emissions which are growing in importance every day, thanks to spreading concerns over the environment.
Swot Analysis
Opportunities Ferrari:
• Growth in the global market for high-performance super-cars due to growing economies & developing nations.
• Expansion of the brand through entering into new & important automotive markets like India wherein competitors like Porsche have already set up base.
• Enlargement of customer base (increase appeal of their products to a more variety of buyers) through adding comfort, roominess, luggage space, engines that are more user friendly, and so on, while at the same time maintaining traditional Ferrari characteristics–performance, style, exclusivity. Ferrari has been exploiting this aspect for a while & it has been a key contributor to their success in the past 15 years.
• Development of technology (for example interfacing electronics with mechanical systems) has opened up new avenues to explore for their products.
• Packaging i.e. the concept of the car, is another area which still has years to explore.
Swot Analysis
Threats of Ferrari:
• Automotive policies being pushed by countries & continents all over the world which are being strictly enforced like the emission norms of 130g/km of CO2 are very difficult to keep up with due to the performance oriented nature of the engines built by Ferrari.
• Tough competition from other iconic super car brands like Lamborghini & Porsche
• A competing brand like Porsche does not follow the same low volumes, high on exclusivity model which is followed by Ferrari & hence sells a lot more of its products & captures a large chunk of the market share.
• Once again, competitors like Lamborghini & Porsche are expanding their product range to high performance SUV’s wherein Porsche has already been very successful with its “Cayenne” model, all over the world & in particular, in India, which has led to its success in the Indian market. Ferrari has not announced any plans for such a product (high-performance SUV) as of yet.
