Austria Vehicle Production : 2017-18


You may not think of Austria as a car producing nation but it does. It has a contract manufacturer, Magna Steyr in Graz. The current companies utilising the assembly operation are listed below. Volume was +69%, but with contract manufacturing, it can fluctuate a fair bit. For now it's on the up.

They made the BMW 5-Series and Z4 sports car. For Jaguar the E-Pace and i-Pace are made and for Mercedes-Benz the G-Wagon. To be making such a diverse range of vehicles is no mean feat. Commercial vehicles are also made in Austria, listed as a total figure. The company concerned seems publicity shy.
