Great Britain: 2021 market and production forecasts

- The UK light vehicles market - Passenger Cars (PC) + Light Utility Vehicles (LUV) - reached 1,923,721 units in 2020, down 28.1% compared to 2019, which is a very poor performance as most European countries recorded much better figures, the European average being around 23.5%.

- For passenger cars, with 1,630,000 units, the UK market is back in 2020 to the 70s level. And for the first time in more than 40 years, the UK passenger car market is lower in volume than the French market in 2020.

- Again in the passenger car market in 2020, the Volkswagen group remains largely the leader with 374,738 units (23.0% market share), far ahead of the PSA groups (183,068 units; 11, 2%), BMW (161,585 units; 9.9%) and Ford (152,777 units; 9.4%). Following are the Renault-Nissan groups (142,771 units; 8.8%) and Hyundai-Kia (118,044 units; 7.2%).

- 2021 should be a year of transition in Europe, with a slow and gradual exit from the situation known in 2020. This will a priori induce a moderate recovery in sales. The British light vehicles market could therefore represent 2,108,314 units, up 10% compared to 2020.

- For production forecasts in 2021, Britain would slightly decrease from 970,000 units in 2020 to 960,000 in 2021, which represents a drop of 1% in one year. This relative stabilization of production is mainly explained by the shutdown of production at the Honda plant in Swindon (Honda Civic transferred to Japan) and the PSA plant in Ellesmere Port (Opel Astra transferred to Germany) which will not offset the revival of production from other carmakers.

Europe: 2021 market and production forecasts

- The European light vehicles market - Passenger Cars (PC) + Light Utility Vehicles (LUV) - reached 13.85 million units in 2020 (provisional data awaiting final data at the end of January), down around 23.5% compared to 2019. This is a fairly weak performance as most of the big global markets recorded much better figures last year  such as China (-1.9%), Japan (-11.5%) or even USA (-14.5%). The worldwide market being around -14.2%.

- The European market for light vehicles returns in 2020 to the level of 1994. At the time, the volume of European registrations had not exceeded 14 million units.

- In 2020, for the passenger car market, the Volkswagen group remains largely the European market leader with a 24.8% market share, far ahead of the PSA (15.1%) and Renault-Nissan (13.2%) groups. Next are the groups BMW (7.5%), Hyundai-Kia (6.8%), Daimler (6.7%), Ford (5.9%) and FCA (5.9%).

- 2021 should be a year of transition in Europe, with a slow and gradual exit from the situation known in 2020. This will a priori induce a moderate recovery in sales. The European light vehicles market could therefore represent 15 million units, up 9% compared to 2020.

- For the production forecast in 2021, Europe would increase from 14.02 million in 2020 to 15.88 million in 2021, which represents an increase of 13.2% in one year. This increase is primarily due to the recovery of European markets and also exports, particularly to the USA and China.

Italy: 2021 market and production forecasts

- The Italian light vehicles market - Passenger Cars (PC) + Light Utility Vehicles (LUV) - reached 1,531,496 units in 2020, down 27.2% compared to 2019, which is a rather poor performance as most European countries recorded much better figures, the European average being around 23.5%.

- For passenger cars, with 1,380,000 units, the Italian market returned in 2020 to the 2014 level, the year following the financial crisis of 2008-2009. At this time, the volume of registrations had not exceeded 1,360,000 units.

- Again in the passenger car market in 2020, the FCA group remains largely the leader with 331,120 units (24% market share), far ahead of the Volkswagen groups (230,470 units; 16.7% ) and PSA (204,502 units; 14.8%). Following are the Renault-Nissan groups (171,685 units; 12.4%) and Ford (89,558 units; 6.5%) largely behind.

- 2021 should be a year of transition in Europe, with a slow and gradual exit from the situation known in 2020. This will a priori induce a moderate recovery in sales. The Italian market for light vehicles could therefore represent 1,657,621 units, an increase of 8% compared to 2020.

- For the production forecast in 2021, Italy would increase from 730,000 units in 2020 to 800,000 in 2021, which represents an increase of 10% in one year. This increase in production will be due to the ramp-up of the electric Fiat 500 and the relaunch of the European markets in 2021, the historic place of sales for the FCA group. The arrival of the Alfa-RoméoTonale (C-segment SUV) could also boost the production in Italy at the end of the year.

Tesla sold nearly 500,000 electric cars in 2020

- California electric car maker Tesla broke its 2020 sales record again, with 499,550 battery electric vehicles in 2020, up from 365,000 units in 2019, narrowly missing its sales target of 500,000 units.

- The production volume is, however, slightly over 500,000 units, due to the necessary stock. It represents 509,737 units, divided into 454,932 Model 3 / Model Y and 54,805 Model S / Model X, making it (by far) the leading carmaker of battery electric cars (BEV) in the world. Tesla is also one of the only non-Chinese carmakers to have increased its production volume in 2020, compared to 2019. This increase reaches 40% given the opening of new capacity in China in 2020. Sales are in 37% increase in a global auto market down around 14.2% due to the coronavirus crisis.

- Tesla's good health is due to the ramp-up of the Model 3 sedan which totalled 442,511 sales in 2020 worldwide, its production being effective in the United States (Fremont) and in China (Shanghai). The Model 3 has confirmed its leading position in the BEV category, far ahead of the Chinese models and the Renault Zoe. The Model Y started at the end of 2020, while the pick-up is expected for 2021 which should also be marked by the ramp-up of the Tesla plant in Shanghai and by the debut of the Tesla plant in Berlin. The growth of the Californian carmaker should therefore continue in 2021 and 2022, while competition begins to arrive, both from China, Europe and even the United States.
