PRAGUE -- Automakers will need to adjust their manufacturing strategies to account for a constant stream of disruptions affecting everything from supply chains to product distribution, Toyota Europe's executive vice president for manufacturing, Marvin Cooke, said.
"We have been through an unprecedented period of challenges, and the previous normality is gone," Cooke said as the closing speaker at Automotive News Europe's annual congress in Prague.
"This is the new normal and you have to be prepared for disruption."
