Inovev expects 75,000 new Opel Vivaro SUV per year

- Previously based on the Renault Trafic, following former agreements signed between Renault and the GM Group, the Opel Vivaro changes completely in 2019. It now takes the platform, engines and body of Citroën Jumpy, Peugeot Expert and Toyota ProAce, following the acquisition of Opel by the PSA group. The front of the new Opel Vivaro has been customized to differentiate it from the other PSA group SUVs sharing the same base.

- The new Opel Vivaro will continue to be manufactured on the Opel-Vauxhall site in Luton, since this site was taken over by PSA during the acquisition of Opel, but some versions that were manufactured on the Renault Sandouville site will be discontinued.

- The Luton site, with a production capacity of 100,000 vehicles per year, should be able to manufacture 75,000 Vivaro each year according to Inovev, to which should be added 15,000 Citroën Jumpy and Peugeot Expert for the UK market.

- Since 2013, Opel Vivaro sales have benefited from the growth of the European market for light commercial vehicles. They practically doubled between 2012 and 2018, from 40,000 to 75,000 units.

- The new Opel Vivaro is equipped with 1.6l and 2.0l diesel engines used by the Citroën Jumpy, Peugeot Expert and Toyota ProAce, and like them, it should soon adopt an electric motorization.

The Japanese market (PC + LCV) was stable in 2018 (+ 0.7%)

- The Japanese car market (PC + LCV) was almost stable in 2018, having registered a very modest increase of 0.7%, to 5.27 million units, against 5.23 million in 2017.

- Since 2012, a year after the violent tsunami that disrupted the entire Japanese auto industry, the Japanese market has remained stable at around 5.0 / 5.4 million units, a level far removed from that recorded in the 1990s, which far exceeded 6 million units a year (and even 7 million between 1989 and 1991).

- Several reasons can explain the low level of the Japanese market, structural reasons (aging of the population and declining demographics, the very high density of big cities, the decreasing interest of young people for cars), but also short-term reasons such as a stagnant economy, relative to the rise of China and Korea.

- Under these conditions, Japanese manufacturers’ sales have all shrunk on the Japanese market. The Toyota Group remains the largest manufacturer in Japan, with a market share of 43.3% in 2018 (including 30% for Toyota-Lexus brands), ahead of Honda (14.2%), Suzuki (13.6%) %), Nissan (11.7%), Mazda (4.2%), Subaru (2.8%) and Mitsubishi (2.0%). For 2019, due to a slowdown in global economic growth, Inovev expects a decline in the Japanese market of around 3%, which means a drop to 5.1 million units.

Inovev expects between 10,000 and 15,000 units a year from the new Toyota Supra

- Toyota relaunches the name Supra (abandoned in 2002) on a new generation of coupe that shares a platform with the recent BMW Z4 (which only exists in cabriolet version).

- Both models are manufactured in the same factory, that of Magna-Steyr which is located in Graz in Austria. This is the first time a Toyota model will be manufactured on this site.

- While the BMW Z4 is available in two different engines, a 4-cylinder 2.0l (185hp / 245hp) and a 6-cylinder 3.0 l(340hp), the Toyota Supra will only have a 340 hp 6-cylinder 3.0 l engine.

- The Toyota Supra is 4,38m long, 1,85m wide and 1,29m high, which means it is longer, wider and as low as the GT86 Toyota coupe, which is derived from the Subaru BRZ, a lower range segment coupe.

- According to Toyota, the style of the new Supra was inspired by the famous Toyota 2000 GT marketed in the late 60s.

- Toyota expects to start sales of the Supra in the summer of 2019, and nearly 1,000 units are expected to be sold on the European continent in its first year of commercialization. Its main markets should therefore be China and the United States. Inovev forecasts that between 10,000 and 15,000 Supra will be  sold each year. Its competitors in Europe are mainly the Porsche Cayman and Renault Alpine.

The Russian market (PC + LCV) increased by 12.8% in 2018

- The Russian car market (PC+ LCV) increased by 12.8% in 2018, with a volume of 1.8 million units, compared to 1.6 million in 2017, a year that had already recorded an increase of 11.9 % compared to 2016.

- The reboot of the market has therefore increased in 2018, thanks to a return of a more favorable local economic situation, but we are still far from the 2012 registration records, when the Russian market approached 3 million units.

- According to Inovev, the catch-up is expected to continue in 2019, despite less favorable global economic conditions, due to slower growth. The Russian market is expected to once again reach the symbolic mark of two million units this year, an increase of about 10% over 2018.

- Manufacturers have all benefited from the revival of the Russian market in 2018, except of course GM, which pulled out of the Russian market several years ago. Ford said it is also studying a scenario of withdrawal from the Russian market, and is expected to announce its final decision in the coming weeks.

- In any case, the Renault-Nissan group (owner of Russian Autovaz) remains by far the leading manufacturer in Russia, with a market share of 36% (20% for the Lada brand), ahead of the Hyundai-Kia groups ( 22.7%), Volkswagen (12.0%), Toyota (7.4%), GAS (3.4%), Ford (3.0%), Daimler (2.5%), UAZ (2, 3%) and BMW (2.1%).
