2013 Worldwide production of the first 12 manufacturers
- Inovev has listed the top 12 automotive groups based on their production volume (PC + LCV) worldwide in the first 10 months of 2013.
- This ranking takes into account the Chinese production achieved for foreign manufacturers and not Chinese assemblers. For example, the production achieved by Shanghai-VW for Volkswagen has been accounted for Volkswagen and not for SAIC or that produced by Dongfeng-PSA for PSA is accounted for PSA and not for Dongfeng. The classification thus formed shows the dominance of the Toyota group ahead of the GM group, Volkswagen, Renault-Nissan and Hyundai-Kia, in the first five places.
- One can note the presence of ten generalist manufacturers in the top ten and two premium manufacturers in 11th and 12th place (almost shoulder to shoulder).
- By nationality, we note the presence of three Japanese automakers (Toyota, Honda, Suzuki), three German manufacturers (Volkswagen, BMW, Daimler), two American carmakers (GM, Ford), two French carmakers (Renault-Nissan PSA), a Korean carmaker (Hyundai-Kia) and an Italian carmaker (Fiat-Chrysler).
- These twelve manufacturers account for 80% of the global car production in 2013.
