- The Volkswagen Group reached in 2014 the second place of the global car manufacturer ranking (in terms of global sales PC + LUV). In 2013, it was third and it aims to be the first in 2015.
- The Toyota group is the leading manufacturer worldwide in 2014, with 10.23 million vehicles sold (+ 2.5%), ahead of the Volkswagen Group, with 10.14 million vehicles sold (+ 6.7%). These two manufacturers are the first to have passed in a year the threshold figure of 10 million vehicles sold.
- Third, the GM Group (formerly first) failed to overcome this figure but remains very close to its competitors (9.92 million vehicles sold, + 2.2%). The excellent performance in China of VW and GM (due to the GM-Wuling brand and minivans) are some of the vectors of growth.
- More sharply detached, the Renault-Nissan group (8.41 million vehicles sold, + 1.8%) and Hyundai-Kia (8.01 million vehicles, + 6.0%) are in fourth and fifth positions, the same positions as in 2013.
- Far behind the five leaders, the Ford group (6.32 million vehicles, + 1.1%) is in sixth place as in 2013, ahead of the FCA groups (4.75 million, + 9.2%), Honda (4.30 million, + 5.0%), PSA (2.94 million, + 4.3%), Suzuki (2.88 million, + 8.2%), BMW (2.12 million, + 10.4%) and Daimler (1.74 million, + 11.5%) who all keep the same position in the ranking.
