Vereinigtes Königreich von Großbritannien und Nordirland Fahrzeugproduktion

UK car production rose 17.7% year-on-year to 53,003 units in December 2025, ending a four-month decline after a cyber incident disrupted output earlier in the year. However, total vehicle production fell 15.5% in 2025 to 764,715 units, weighed down by the cyber disruption, new transatlantic trade tariffs, plant consolidation in the commercial vehicle segment, and ongoing restructuring as the industry shifts toward decarbonization. Over the year, production for the UK market declined 8.2% to 161,545 units, while exports fell 7.9% to 555,826 units, accounting for 77.5% of output. Europe remained the main export destination (56.7%), followed by the US (15.0%) and China (6.3%). Production of battery electric, plug-in hybrid, and hybrid vehicles rose 8.3% to 298,813 units, lifting electrified models to a record 41.7% share of total output.
