- Unlike European exports, imports recorded in Europe continued to decline in 2013, down by 1.5% to 3.30 million passenger cars (against 3 350 000 in 2012 and 3 650 000 in 2011) .

- By observing the origin of these imports, we can see a clear predominance of Asian countries:

- Korea (275 000 units), but this country will lower the number of imports of Chevrolet to Europe (145 000 units in 2013), preparing the removal of this brand on this continent in 2016.

- Japan (190 000 units).

- India (110 000 units), which will nevertheless stop delivering the Suzuki Alto to Europe as from June 2014 (32 000 units in 2013)

- Thailand (45 000 units), which also became a significant country in terms of exports, with the Suzuki brand, that will export the Celerio as from July 2014 to replace the Alto.

- The NAFTA region has delivered 250 000 vehicles to Europe last year. Morocco has gradually become a major car exporting country to Europe, due to the launch of the Tangier plant (which currently produces the Dacia Lodgy and Dokker). In 2013, Morocco delivered more than 50 000 vehicles to Europe (twice the amount produced in 2012). In 2014, with the arrival of the Sandero and the increasing sales rate on the site of Tangier, we can expect that 100 000 vehicles will be exported from Morocco to Europe.
