The new ranking of automobile groups in 2019 in the world
- The decline in worldwide automotive markets and especially the Chinese automotive market (-11.5% over the first 8 months of 2019 compared to the first 8 months of 2018) has upset the global ranking of car manufacturers.
- Thus, because they are very present in the Chinese market, the Volkswagen and General-Motors groups have lost a greater volume of sales compared to their competitors. The consequence is that the Volkswagen group loses its first place in the world for the benefit of the Toyota group (less present in China), and the GM group loses its fourth place to the benefit of the Hyundai-Kia group (less present in China).
- The Renault-Nissan group falls in third place behind Toyota and Volkswagen. The decrease is mainly due to the decline of the Nissan brand which has been slow to replace the Juke, is facing competition from all sides against the Qashqai, is not meeting the expected success for the Micra and has removed the Pulsar without offspring.
- Another important change, the Honda group (6th) exceeds for the first time the Ford Group (7th) which continues to collapse in China, abandons the Russian market and is treading water in Europe.
- Behind, the group FCA remains in eighth place and ahead of the group PSA (9th) which loses its influence in Iran and China. Last change of the Top 12, the group Daimler (10th) managed to exceed the group Suzuki (11th) which is hit full blow by the reversal of the Indian market on which it is leader. The BMW group remains in twelfth place, like last year.
