Statistics

German sales increase 14.4% in March, driven by rising fuel costs and incentives, as electrification progresses, with strong sales of models such as the Tesla Model 3, Model Y, and BYD SEAL.

Mexico sees a 2.4% increase in March sales, maintaining strong performance from the beginning of the year, partly due to the effect of financial institutions' reduced interest rates on auto loans. Chinese brands also perform well, with the Nissan Magnite and Hyundai Grand i10 also showing strong sales.

Brazilian car sales increase 37.8% in March, driven by rising demand due to lower interest rates and fleet renewals, with models such as the Fiat Strada, Hyundai HB20, and BYD Dolphin Mini seeing significant sales increases.

Mexico's production increases 2.5% in March, driven by strong exports. Increased production of export-oriented models such as the VW Tiguan, Audi Q5, Kia K4, and Ram P/U light trucks lead the overall increase.
