Executive Summary
Mexico's automotive industry has beaten our expectations for 2006. As the Mexican Automobile Industry Association (AMIA) hails a record year for the sector in the three key areas of sales, production and exports, Business Monitor International (BMI) has raised its forecast for production and exports to 2mn units and 1.55mn units respectively in the Mexico Automobiles Report for Q406.
In line with AMIA data, the sector reported record sales in October with 97,468 units - the highest figure reported for the month for the last six years. This figure represents an 8.3% increase on the same month a year before. Sales for the period January-October jumped 1.5% to 879,144 units compared with year-ago figures. General Motors continues to dominate the market, with accumulated sales for the year to October of 195,416 units. GM's closest rival, Nissan, booked sales of 176,470 units for the period. Ford, meanwhile, ranks as third with sales of 141,657 units. BMI maintains its sales forecast of 1.175mn units for 2006 given that the strong figures reported in the second half of the year may have been the result of consumers hastening to purchase vehicles before any political shake-up following the presidential elections in July.
As stated above, we have raised our forecasts for production and exports. According to figures from AMIA, production for the period January-October rose by 27.9% to 1,655,323 units against the same period a year before. The pace of growth has been such that the industry is well on the way to surpassing our original forecast of 1.736mn units. Our revised forecast for the year (2mn units) is therefore in line with the expectations of industry representatives. Similarly, exports have enjoyed significant growth during the year. In line with industry data, in the period January-October exports soared by 35.5% against the prior-year period to 1,270,654 units.
Volkswagen (VW) has emerged as the biggest exporter of vehicles to the rest of Latin America, with figures that reflect a massive 233% increase. According to company sources, exports to Central and South America rose from 5,872 units in 2005 to 19,563 units by the end of September 2006. Argentina, Brazil and Colombia are VW's main markets. The huge upturn confirms the advantages of making vehicles for export in Mexico, a factor that has contributed to the country's position in BMI's Business Environment Ranking. Mexico scores positively in our ratings, reaching fifth in the region thanks in part to its strong trade agreements. While AMIA is forecasting total exports of 1.6mn, we expect a more modest 1.55mn to be reached.
With respect to new investment, DaimlerChrysler has unveiled investment of US$23.5mn to extend its network in the country. The capital has been earmarked for three plants, with the carmaker's facilities in the State of Mexico being the main beneficiary.
