Passenger car production in selected countries in 2015, by country (in million units)

This statistic shows the leading countries for the production of passenger cars in 2015. In that year, the United Kingdom produced around 1.6 million such vehicles. According to the source, passenger cars are motor vehicles with at least four wheels, used for the transport of passengers, and comprising no more than eight seats in addition to the driver's seat.

Light vehicle production by country 

Globally, 2015 saw an increase in passenger car production of 21.2 percent. While South Korea is at risk of losing market share, Germany reported satisfying figures for 2015. India is on the verge of becoming a major producer of passenger vehicles: The quantity of vehicles produced in India increased from 3,158,215 units in 2014 to about 3,378,063 million units in 2015. As a side note, it is worthwhile mentioning that Pakistan’s automobile manufacturing industry grew by a staggering almost 50 percent from 2014 to 2014. This Asian country produced over 125,000 cars in 2014, and almost 183,000 cars in 2015. 

Despite not having a strong automobile sector of its own, China remained the top light vehicle producing country in 2015. Domestic manufacturers such as Dongfeng, SAIC, FAW (First Automotive Works) and BAIC - which is now in a joint-venture with Daimler - are gaining market share, but joint ventures with foreign partners are still key to China’s success as a motor vehicle producer, both in the passenger car and the truck segment. Japan, Germany, South Korea and the United States completed the list of the world’s largest five car producers. These countries are home to the major manufacturers of passenger vehicles. The leading car manufacturers worldwide include US-based General Motors and Ford, Germany’s Volkswagen Group, as well as the Japanese automakers Toyota Motor Corporation and Nissan.
