Romania's automobile production up 10% y/y to record 560,000 in 2024
<p>Ford Transit &amp; Tourneo Courier, Ford Puma, and the new Dacia Duster led Romanian car production to a record volume of over 560,000 cars, according to calculations by <a href="https://www.zf.ro/auto/record-dublu-industria-auto-romaneasca-2024-560-000-masini-au-22647273?mc_cid=b78f7dd7b8&amp;mc_eid=cd1f92f96c" rel="noopener" target="_blank">Ziarul Financiar</a> based on information from the car market and Ford Otosan's stock exchange report.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The volume thus brings a 10% increase compared to 2023, being the best year ever recorded by the Romanian industry.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The record volume comes at a time when European car production has been hit hard, marking a slight decline compared to 2023, and competition from China is putting increasing pressure on European production.&nbsp;</p>
