2004 Global and Company Vehicle Production Figures

On TV Show Autoline Detroit the following tables were presented on last week's show that I found extremely interesting and I am sure you will too:

2004 Regional Vehicle Production (Source OICA):

1. Asia = 23 Million Vehicles
2. Europe = 20.8M
3. North America = 16.2M
4. South America = 2.5M
5. Rest = 420K

------------------

2004 Company Vehicle Production (Source: Annual Reports)

1. GM = 8.24M
2. Toyota = 7M
3. Ford = 6.64M
4. Renault/Nissan = 5.95M
5. VW = 5.14M
6. Daimler/Chrysler = 4.6M
7. PSA = 3.37M
8. Honda = 2.98M
9. Hyundai/Kia = 2.94M
10. Fiat = 1.766M

Toyota the second largest automaker on the planet officially and look at Renault/Nissan just half a million vehicles behind Ford. Hyundai/Kia looks like they might surpass Honda soon!

That was my other thought which I missed posting. They actually dont even have presence in big cars or even trucks, including SUVs. Even more impressive.

The 607 and the C5 are full size cars for Europe but they don't sell many of those. They do have minivans/wagons that sell well. Virtually no SUVs.

Right. By "dont have presence" I meant, no presence at the top of the charts compared to the competition.

Bottom line, their numbers are almost exclusively based on small or very small cars.
