- Taking into account this parameter, and, in addition, the volume of exports expected in 2017 , in a world market whose growth will decrease in 2017, the pace of cruising of the novelties produced in France and launched in 2016 (Peugeot 3008, Peugeot 5008, Citroën Jumpy, Peugeot Expert, Toyota Proace, Fiat Talento, Renault Scenic, Nissan NV300, Nissan Micra, Alpine Berlinette and Citroën e-Mehari), a production increase by 4% can be expected in 2017, and this in spite of the transfer of the Citroën C3 from Poissy (France) to Trnava (Slovakia).
- France will thus remain far behind Germany and Spain in terms of volume production, and will still remain very far from its levels reached in the early 2000s. But the volume which should be reached in 2017 will still be the best recorded since 2011. In the 10 first months of 2016, French car production increased by 2% (instead of the 5% expected for the whole year), as some models announced in 2015 started in 2016 later than expected, which has shifted in time their production rise.
However, growth is expected to increase by the end of December.
