This is quite interesting, was pondering on few points -

1. What bachelors engineering degree are they referring to here. Does it have to be related to automotive - like mechanical engineering or other streams folks are also allowed.
2. Is this going to be more like a management degree or more hands on technical education path ? If its like an MBA, how will non mechanical engineering folks supposed to take up this path.
