AutoSAP: Car production in Czechia up by 3.3% y/y to 128,413 in April (Škoda+SEAT/Cupra +7.9%, Hyundai -13.2%, Toyota +6.1%). Buses (Iveco +4.2%, SOR +700%), motorcycles (Jawa +337.7%) performed differently. Electric car manufacturing decreased by 4.6% to 25,856 BEVs and PHEVs, while internal combustion engine car (ICEV) output rose by 5.4% to 102,557 units. Not only production of passenger cars, but also manufacturing of buses in Czech Republic has long confirmed its extraordinary strength and competitiveness. Year-on-year double-digit growth in production, position of European and world leader in number of buses produced per total population, and growing number of battery and hybrid buses in recent years confirm that Czech makers are among world’s top manufacturers that can successfully respond to market changes and demand for low-emission public transport, Petzl said

JD Power, GlobalData cut 2026 global new light-vehicle sales outlook by 900,000 to 1.8 million cars, vans from 92.6-93.5 million (+0.8% to +1.7%, 2025: 91.9 million) to 91.7 million (-0.4%). Conflict in Middle East is one key factor behind downward revision, as downstream consequences of war on energy prices, GDP growth and consumer confidence start to influence light-vehicle sales forecasts. This is true even for regions with few direct links to Middle East from supply chain perspective, such as North America. However, slow implementation of new subsidy scheme in China and cooling of price war in that market are also notable considerations, Oakley (GlobalData) said
