UK Car Production Drops Amidst Transition to Electric Vehicles

UK car production experienced a decline last month, dropping 27% compared to the same period last year. However, this dip is attributed to the industry’s transition to next-generation electric vehicle production. Despite the decrease, over one-third of vehicles manufactured in March were eco-friendly petrol alternatives. International exports accounted for more than six out of ten cars manufactured, with European Union countries receiving the majority of shipments. Despite the monthly decline, Q1 production remained positive with a 1.1% increase compared to the previous year.
