The Wards Story
Our story begins 100 years ago with Al Ward, the first to recognize the importance of providing production figures of automobile manufacturers to the public, and to create the first newsletter devoted to this information. Ward’s Automotive Reports (WAR) quickly became a trusted source of information for the auto industry and has been an invaluable resource for decades.
Fast forward to today, and WAR has evolved into WardsAuto, providing the same data-driven insight that has made it a leader in the auto industry, but now with the added benefits of the connection and events of TU-Automotive and the research expertise of Wards Intelligence. At WardsAuto, we are committed to continuing Al Ward’s legacy of providing the auto industry with the knowledge and information necessary to inform, inspire, and accelerate a brighter AutoTech future.
