(ANSA) - BRUSSELS, JAN 31 - Among the major European economies, in 2022 Italy recorded the worst result for registered cars: they were 1,316,702, a decrease of 9.7% compared to 2021. Followed by France (- 7.8%) and Spain (-5.4%).
On the other hand, Germany is positive, with +1.1%.
These are the data released by the association of European car manufacturers (Acea).
Overall, 9,255,926 cars were registered in the European Union last year, down by 4.6% compared to 2021 "mainly due to the impact of component shortages during the first half of the year".
This is the third annual decline in a row in the EU.
