- British car production has been growing ever since the drop in 2009, and today it is close behind the level of French production.
- UK production is healthy thanks to the success of the Nissan Qashqai, Nissan Juke, BMW Mini, which has offset the loss of Ford, once a major producer in Britain.
- Jaguar and Land Rover makes have especially benefited from the worldwide success of Premium brands, especially in Europe, the USA and China. Likewise, at a smaller scale for Aston Martin, Bentley and Rolls-Royce.
- Thus, British production approaches once more a production capacity of 2 million vehicles per year (against 3 million for France) and the progression of the UK and European market as a whole can only improve this prognosis.
- In addition, the transfer of the Toyota Auris from Turkey to Britain in 2013, the arrival of the Nissan Leaf in 2013, the Infiniti Q30 in 2015, the Jaguar XE in 2015 will accentuate this phenomenon, even if in the same timeframe the GM Luton plant lost the manufacturing of the Renault Trafic in 2014 (transfer to the French Sandouville plant).
- Inovev expects a 7% increase in production between 2015 and 2014.
