The sales figure in February 2023 is the third time the level of 1000,000 units per month has been exceeded in the last 36 months. In the last 36 months (from March 2020 to February 2023), monthly vehicle sales exceeded 100,000 units only three times: December 2020 with 105,135 units, December 2022 with 120,862 units, and February 2023.

Ford sold 3,047 units, a decrease of 3.2%, and Stellantis sold 8,179 units, an increase of 124.3%.
Nissan sales of 19,417 units in February increased 28.1% from the same month last year.

With local production at Giant Motors, JAC sold 1,502 units in February, a 38.4% increase from the previous year. MG sales increased 51.2% to 4,602 units.
Scotiabank expects that the US economic performance will play a key role in Mexican growth and is likely to be a challenge for the Mexican economy. About two-thirds of the Mexican recovery from the 2020 pandemic low is accounted for by exports to the US, which is now broadly expected to fall into a technical recession in 2023. The bank also anticipates that Banxico’s overnight rate will rise to 11% in 2023.
