Industry Drive to launch Automotive Dive, fifth new newsletter for 2023

Business news newsletter company Industry Dive is launching Automotive Dive, its fifth new newsletter this year.

The first daily email newsletter will be delivered on June 12.

The newsletter will cover how top automakers are leaning into new EV models and building out software-connected car features, investing heavily into additional infrastructure, research and development and for some, sourcing their own materials to alleviate supply chain issues. As of January 2023, car and truck capital expenditures topped $33.4 billion.

“These dynamics provide vast opportunity for Industry Dive to do what its model is built on, provide sharp, daily insights into the continual changes in the industry, while digging into the larger trends that can shape how auto executives make decisions in the years to come,” said Thai Phi Le, senior managing editor of new launches, in a statement.

The other new newsletters this year have been Fashion Dive, Hotel Dive, Packaging Dive, and Facilities Dive earlier this month.
