Automakers produced 37,029 vehicles in June, down 1.9% from May and 13.6% year-over-year, according to ADEFA.
The first half closed with 204,658 units produced, an 18.3% drop from the same period in 2025.
Exports also declined: 22,373 vehicles were shipped in June, down 11.3% from May, and the semester total reached 126,893 units, 2.1% below the prior year.
Wholesale sales to dealers rebounded 22.5% monthly to 44,096 units, though the half-year total fell 23.7%.
ADEFA president Rodrigo Pérez Graziano said “the local industry is operating with slower recovery times relative to demand” and that recovery would depend on financing conditions.
