The Spanish market shrinks by 31.7% in 2021 compared to 2019
- The Spanish automotive market (passenger cars) remained at a very low level in 2021 compared to 2019 (-31.7%), a level which remains very slightly higher compared to 2020 (+ 1.0%). In total, Spain registered 859,477 passenger cars last year, up from 851,211 in 2020 and 1,258,260 in 2019. This is the lowest figure since 2014, after 2020.
- The reasons given for this very low level of registrations in 2021 relate to the lack of supply of the semiconductors that automakers need to make their cars marketable.
- But it could be that the sharp increase in the average price of cars as well as a wait-and-see attitude from customers on electric vehicles may slow down purchases and encourage potential customers to keep their vehicles longer.
