摘要:The global outbreak of the COVID-19 and the measures taken, disrupted fundamentally economies around the world. Almost all sectors were affected. The experts have long emphasised the Czech economy’s dependence on the automotive industry. Car producers and companies linked to them have been loaded by severe difficulties after the pandemic outbreak. The article shows one of the constructive ways how to forecast a change in the passenger cars production in the Czech Republic in 2020. Metodologically we lean on a procedure of the fuzzy approach. The prediction itself cannot be derived from the series of historical data of the variables that are related to the target output variable as shown in the fuzzy prediction of GDP for 2018 by this author. Due to the extreme situation caused by pandemic outbreak, the role of expert predictions come intensively into play with their outcomes becoming the set of input data to the fuzzy model. The result of the fuzzy forcast of a change in the cars production in CZ for 2020 shows a greater drop than the official statistical model claims.
