German automotive industry association VDA confirmed its 2011
outlook Friday, saying the economic downturn hasn't yet affected
the industry.
The country's new car registrations in August rose 18% from a
year earlier to 237,7000, while car exports of German brands
increased 17% to 299,400, VDA said.
VDA President Matthias Wissmann said that was a record export
volume. Domestic car production increased nearly 20% to 399,000,
also a record, he said.
Wissmann said he expects the positive trend to weaken in the
coming months because of the general economic slowdown. "Of course,
now that the recovery process has reached its current stage, growth
is going to slow," he said.
Nevertheless, the outlook for 2011 remains positive. The
association still expects more than 3.1 million new car
registrations in Germany this year, exports of over 4.5 million
cars and more than 5.9 millions cars to be produced in the
country.
