About this data
Germany's largest manufacturing industry measured from output to sale: passenger car production and new registrations from the Bundesbank, the VDA breakdown of battery-electric and plug-in hybrid cars including production and exports, new registrations of light and heavy commercial vehicles, buses and trailers, and the KBA split of new petrol and diesel cars by WLTP CO₂ emissions band with the average emissions of each fuel type.
