Will transfers of production from France to other countries be compensated?
- In France, over the period 2019 to 2021, many vehicles will be transferred outside the country to be produced at other production sites in Europe or elsewhere. Will the loss of production of these vehicles be compensated by the arrival of new models? This is the purpose of this analysis.
- Transfers of production from France to other countries are as follows:
• In 2019,
ØPeugeot 2008: transfer from Mulhouse to Vigo (Spain),
ØPeugeot 208: transfer from Poissy to Kenitra (Morocco),
ØOpel Grandland: transfer from Sochaux to Eisenach (Germany),
ØRenault Clio: transfer from Flins to Novo Mesto (Slovenia),
• In 2021, Smart Fortwo: transfer from Hambach to ???? (China).
• These transfers add up to 202,000 units lost in 2019, 405,000 in 2020 and 415,000 in 2021.
- Transfers of production from abroad to France:
• Only the future Opel Mokka will be transferred from Zaragoza (Spain) to Poissy. This transfer brings production of 150,000 units/year from 2020.
- The arrival of new models in France are as follows:
• In 2019,
ØNissan NV 250 (Maubeuge),
• In 2020
ØMercedes EQA on the Hambach site,
ØToyota SUV B (Onnaing),
• In 2021
ØRenault BEV C-Segment (Douai).
• These transfers and arrivals add up to 25,000 units in 2019, 250,000 in 2020 and 300,000 in 2021.
- Taking into account these production transfers and the arrival of new models, the balance is therefore negative at 177,000 units in 2019, 155,000 in 2020 and 115,000 in 2021.
- With these various production transfer movements (arrival in France, transfer from or to France), French production between 2019 and 2021 will remain above 2 million units, i.e. 2.15 million units in 2019, 2.22 million in 2020 and 2.05 million in 2021.
