DESIGN:
Ranging from interviews with top designers (GM's Wayne Cherry and consultant Richard Seymour) to examinations of new computer-aided design tools to explanations of design strategies at major suppliers and the automakers.

ENGINEER:
From analysis of how digital models speed product design to how DaimlerChrysler makes product with coconuts, and from Honda's rebirth of the Goldwing to Garrets' re-engineering of the turbocharger, we've got it covered.

PRODUCE:
How are things made? From the best practices of Toyota in West Virginia and Ford in Belgium to the Fundamentals in machine tools, manufacturing and cutting tools. It's all here.

MANAGE:
Management matters. So we talk to managers at the automakers and suppliers to reveal their best practices; we talk to authors and consultants; we look at the new technologies that help executives and companies become more efficient.

MATERIALS:
Composites. Steel. Aluminum. Magnesium. If it's in use or in development and can help produce automotive parts and components. We look at it.

INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY:
This is an on-going, informed view of what's happening - Covisint, e-collaboration, B2B markets, ERP developments, etc.
