1.Introduction

-MarkLines' database system on vehicle production figures is a system that enables global production figures owned by MarkLines covering 41 countries except Egypt to be searched by country and maker/brand for showing.

-Data can be processed by Excel after it is saved in the form of CSV.

-The listed 41 countries do not represent all vehicle producing countries. However, it is assumed that production figures in the 41 countries account for more than 90 percent in the total production of vehicles in the world. 



2. Explanatory notes
"-" Hyphen No information on the data is provided in the data source.
"0" Zero The production figure is zero.
"n.a."

An accurate figure or a model name is not available.

Adjustment - In case there is a difference between aggregated figures of data released from local sources by maker and country-level aggregate figures, country-based aggregates prevail. This discrepancy is shown as "Adjustments."
- In case there is a difference between monthly data aggregates and announced yearly data, the yearly figures prevail. This discrepancy is shown as "Adjustments."
