The 2017 European market by segment and body type (4)

- E Segment currently accounts for 7.5% of the European passenger car market, down from 9% in 2005. This segment is falling inexorably. The breakdown by body in this segment shows that sedans have lost a lot of influence, since their sales volume  fell from 0.9 million units in 2000 to 0.475 million units in 2017 (-0.425 million). Sales of  SUVs in this segment are stagnating, from just under 0.2 million in 2000 to slightly more than 0.2 million units in 2017. E-segment minivans, on the other hand, have lost much of their sales influence, from 0.275 million units in 2000 to 0.175 million in 2017.

- The F segment is currently at 0.5% of the European passenger car market, compared to 0.5% in 2005. This segment has thus been stable since 2005, but this market share is twice that of 2000, because at that time there were only sedans and practically no SUVs. The breakdown by body in this segment is quite atypical, since the F-segment sedans are now selling as much as the F-segment SUVs, while in the year 2000 the latter practically did not exist. F segment MPVs do not exist.

The 2017 European market by segment and body type (1)

- The European passenger car market accounted for 15,498,183 units in 2017 (compared to 15,005,318 units in 2016).

- How does this volume break down by segment? C-segment cars remain largely in the lead in the European market (38% of the European market in 2017), ahead of B-segment cars (32%), D-segment cars (14%), segment A cars (8% ), E segment cars (7%), F segment cars (1%).

- Two segments where the market share has declined over the last twenty years, are the D and E segments. The others have increased their market share (C, B) or remained stable (A, F).

- As for the breakdown by body type, sedans remain in majority on the European market, but their market share has fallen sharply over the past twelve years, from 76% in 2005 to 59% in 2017. This fall in the market share of sedans was driven by strong growth in SUV sales (30% of market share in 2017, compared with only 5% in 2005).

- Minivans (MPV) were also hit hard by the growth of SUV sales, with their market share decreasing from 15% in 2005 to 7% in 2017. The share of microvans and coupé-cabriolets has remained stable.

Renault will produce a C segment electric car in Douai as of 2021

- While Mercedes has recently announced that it will produce in France (on the Smart site  in Hambach) a 100% C segment electric car (probably the EQ-A), Renault has announced in turn the production of a new 100% electric car on the Douai site, alongside the Renault Scénic, Espace and Talisman. As at  Mercedes, the future 100% electric car manufactured in Douai will be C segment like the  former Fluence ZE that was produced from 2011 to 2014 in Turkey.

- For now, the name of this future car to be launched in 2021 has not been released, but we already know that it will utilise the new electric platform recently announced by Renault-Nissan-Mitsubishi. We also know that it will be marketed under both Renault and Nissan brands .

- As for the Renault Zoe, it will continue its commercial career in the B segment. Its production capacity in Flins will also be doubled, from 60,000 to 120,000 units per year by 2022. Last year, 30,000 Zoé were made in Flins, and the model could be renewed soon.

- Renault will also triple the production capacity of electric motors at the Cléon site (Seine-Maritime), from 80,000 to 240,000 engines per year by 2022. Finally, the Maubeuge site will host the manufacture of the future Electric Kangoo, the Sandouville site, the Electric Trafic, and the Batilly site, the Electric Master.

The evolution of vehicle imports in China

- The volume of car imports in China increased significantly between 2005 and 2014, from less than 200,000 to more than 1,200,000 units per year during this period. It then dropped to 1 050 000 units in 2016 and increased to 1 130 000 units in 2017. The level of taxes on imported cars generally defines the volume of imports. The evolution of imports over the next two to three years in China will depend on the increase or decrease of taxes on imported cars (we are talking about notably an increase in taxes on cars imported from the USA).

- By manufacturer, BMW and Mercedes remain the two largest importers of cars in China, although they are producing more and more in this country for local demand. In 2017, they imported almost 180,000 cars each, nearly one-third of all car imports in China.

- Premium brands are the main importers in China, since behind BMW and Mercedes, there is the presence of Lexus (130,000 units), Porsche (70,000 units), Land Rover (56,000 units), Lincoln (53,000 units), Audi (52,000 units), Mini (33,000 units), Volvo (23,000 units), Jaguar (23,000 units) or Infiniti (20,000 units).

- In total, Premium brands account for nearly 80% of imports into China, proof that luxury models are not yet widespread in Chinese auto production.
