The 20 largest global carmakers in 2025
- Here are two graphs representing the top 20 global car carmakers according to the Western ranking (this ranking includes the production of non-Chinese models made by Chinese carmakers in China in the figures for non-Chinese carmakers).
- On the first graph representing the top 10 carmakers, the top seven positions remain unchanged. The Chinese group Geely appears in 2025 in eighth place, supplanting Honda and Suzuki. It should be noted that the top three carmakers, Toyota, Volkswagen and Hyundai-Kia, are now very far apart from each other, separated by two million vehicles.
- They are also very separate from the next seven carmakers which are very close to each other, since these carmakers are in a range of approximately 2 million vehicles.
- The second graph represents the 10 carmakers ranked from 11th to 20th place. Nissan, which has lost considerable influence in recent years, is 11th and is tending to close the gap with its pursuers. Chery is making a breakthrough and takes 12th place. BMW, Renault, Mercedes, and Changan are very close together. Tesla is slipping back in 2025 and is approaching Great Wall, Tata Motors, and SAIC (excluding joint ventures). These 10 carmakers are also in a range of approximately 2 million vehicles.
