Use This Skill When

The user wants to assess the direction of auto demand.
The task requires combining units, inventories, incentives, and pricing into one cycle read.
The analysis needs implications for OEMs, dealers, or suppliers.

Required Inputs

market: US, Europe, China, or other auto region
segments: ICE, EV, luxury, mass-market, trucks, used cars, or another slice
signals: unit sales, SAAR, dealer inventories, incentives, ATPs, financing conditions
time horizon: current quarter, next 6 months, or 12 months
If some data is unavailable, say which parts of the demand stack are inferred rather than observed.

Workflow

Define the auto market slice and horizon.
Review unit momentum and seasonality.
Assess inventories, incentives, and pricing discipline.
Evaluate financing conditions and affordability.
Separate strong demand from supply normalization or easy comps.
Conclude on the cycle state and read-through to exposed names.

Output Requirements

Focus on units, mix, pricing, and affordability together.
Distinguish true demand strength from inventory restocking or incentive shifts.
State whether the cycle is accelerating, plateauing, or weakening.
Tie the read to OEM, dealer, and supplier implications when relevant.

Quality Checks

Confirm units, pricing, and inventories are all addressed.
Check that affordability and financing are included when relevant.
Verify the conclusion distinguishes demand from supply normalization.
Make sure segment differences are explicit if mixed markets are discussed.

Guardrails

Do not treat one month of sales as a full cycle change.
Do not ignore incentives when discussing pricing.
Do not mix EV and ICE trends without saying so.
Do not fabricate sales or inventory data.

Example Prompts

Give me an auto sales momentum view for the US market over the next two quarters.
Explain whether auto demand is improving or just benefiting from better supply.
Build an auto cycle read-through for OEMs and suppliers.
