Plant implementation areas of the world's leading carmakers
- The six main global carmakers have very different operating regions. When taking into account the production figures of 2012:
- The Toyota group produces its vehicles at 73% in Asia (mainly Japan and China) and 20% in North America (mainly in the USA and Canada). Europe remains poorly exploited by Toyota.
- The Volkswagen Group manufactures primarily in Europe (51% of world production), but thanks to China, the share produced in Asia is forever increasing (30% in 2012). If the proportion in America is of 18% , it is largely due to Brazil and Mexico.
- General Motors now manufactures as many vehicles in Asia (mainly China and Korea)as in America (mainly USA, Brazil and Mexico ). Europe accounts for only 14% of the total of 2012.
- The Renault-Nissan group is the carmaker that has the most balanced output on three continents: Europe 40%, Asia 36% and 23% in America. The share of European production, however, is tending to decrease.
- The Hyundai-Kia group on the contrary the most concentrated carmaker over a region, in this case Asia (mainly Korea, China and India). But it is also the last arrived carmaker on the global market.
- The Ford group occurs mostly in America (59%). It's Asian share is the lowest of six leading global companies.
