International Conference on Automotive Industry 2020

ACEA for the current year is provisional and is based on national sources. The ACEA publishes monthly provisional registration figures by country, broken down by brand but not by model. It publishes information on the export of passenger cars for the entire European Union, both in terms of units exported and the euro value of exports. It is necessary to look at statistics published by the automobile manufacturer associations of the individual member states to find statistics on the export of passenger cars from each individual state. The differences in the breadth and depth of the published data are rather significant. The ACEA publishes data on the production of passenger cars on its web pages, but production figures are also available from the Paris-based International Organisation of Motor Vehicle Manufacturers (OICA), which updates them regularly. The OICA web page contains world motor vehicle production statistics obtained from national trade organizations, OICA members, and OICA correspondents. OICA publishes yearly production statistics with a short time lag. Data for current years is made available by the end of the first quarter or beginning of the second quarter of the following year. Of course, data on the production of passenger cars is also published by the individual national automobile associations, for the most part broken down into detailed categories and reported on a yearly basis or more often. When we compare the yearly data on production of automobiles in the various sources, however, we note some significant differences. Some of the differences are attributable to discrepancies in the timing and updating of data, but that is something that must be left for future research.
