Mexico’s car market ended the first nine months of 2026 with a historic result: more than 1.1 million vehicles sold, the highest level ever recorded for the same period. The increase highlights the strength of local demand, despite an economic backdrop that remains uncertain.
The market was helped by affordable models, improved product availability and the growing influence of Asian brands. For the global auto industry, Mexico continues to be a key hub for production and distribution in North America.
