Rising investments from OEMs in Electrical Vehicle production in the country is likely to fuel the automotive production
- Canada is the 11th-largest vehicle manufacturing country in the world and the second-largest in North America. The automotive sector in the country employs nearly 117,200 people. Canada's automotive manufacturing industry is highly integrated with the United States. Automotive components may cross Canadian-US-Mexican borders as many as eight times before being installed in a final assembly. Vehicles are Canada's second-most exported products, of which 93% were exported to the United States in 2020. The decline in automotive production from 2017 to 2019 was due to a demand drop in US markets because of rising interest rates and demand saturation.
- Automotive production declined by a staggering 26.3% in 2020 compared to 2019 due to operational and supply chain restrictions resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic. The ongoing semiconductor chip shortage, caused by pandemic-related production issues and a surge in demand for electronics, has restricted the growth of automotive production in the country. Due to these constraints, automotive production in Canada is expected to record a CAGR of just 1.46% during the forecast period.
- However, the prospects for electric vehicle production are bright in Canada as the country ranks sixth globally for heavy-duty EV production. With more than 700 suppliers of parts and raw materials and investments from global Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) like Ford (USD 1.5 billion), GM (USD 785 million), and Stellantis (USD 1.14 billion) to establish production lines for EVs as well as for EV batteries in Canada, the automotive industry is expected to grow over the forecast period.
