An interactive production map released by the European Automobile Manufacturers Association (ACEA) shows that EU-wide vehicle production losses because of the coronavirus epidemic have now reached over 2m units, with an average plant shutdown across the region of 26 days. The figure includes all passenger cars, vans, buses and coaches.
Unsurprisingly Europe’s top three vehicle making nations have sustained the biggest losses. Germany has lost production of around 554,000 so far this year, while Spain has lost more than 379,000. France has lost 272,500 units of vehicle production.
