The purpose of this paper is to explore the sustainability behavior of automotive companies. In the past decade, several publicized issues have revealed that the environmental and social performance of major automotive companies does not always conform to regulations or expectations.

Conceptual schemes or world-views, like the ones provided by Newtonian mechanics or quantum theory, are the primary bearers of truth, and the truth of a statement strictly depends from the particular conceptual scheme one currently adopts. Conceptual scheme and external world are both necessary, but language does not seem to be a factor whose ultimate legitimacy relies on something outside the conceptual sphere, and this means in turn that we face a dualistic situation. Many problems arise at this point, since even language plays a fundamental role in the Quinean view, and it must be accommodated into the picture if the picture itself means to be coherent. This happens because, in his opinion, human statements about the external world face the tribunal of experience not individually but as a corporate body, which implies that the judgment on their validity ultimately rests on experience itself. In his works the American philosopher Willard van Quine constantly rejects the analytic/synthetic distinction claiming that it is not justified. Therefore cost effectiveness and productivity could also be achieved in scale and scope. Needless to say, CNTs can be utilised for the production of geometrical, irregular or complex shapes and designs with fairly inexpensive and relatively abundant raw materials vis a vis the current conventional processes of fabrication. This could also become the basis for weight reduction. Furthermore, CNTs have been found to have exceptional morphological properties and therefore are promising as reinforcement material in the composite structures along with polymers for many automotive applications. Further the implementation of Carbon Nanotubes shall be dealt in depth with a focus on automobile application. This review paper to a great extent will look into the relevance of carbon nanotubes as a way to improve the performance of “on the road” automobiles in the field of fuel component systems particularly to get a better fuel efficiency.

The Automotive industry continues to be a budding and growing industry wherein new and innovative ideas and technologies find very promising applications periodically.
