<p>Global demand and interest in UK automotive exports is high. 80% of all cars made
in the UK are exported, with nearly 60% of those going to the EU, and just under 15%
to the USA.</p><p> </p><p>The Society of Motor Manufacturers & Traders reported
that in 2022 the automotive industry contributed £32 billion in exports (10% of total
UK goods exports). UK factories made record numbers of electrified vehicles, boosting
their exports to £1.3 billion and British commercial vehicle exports surged by 63.4%.</p><p>
</p><p>Our trade deals will further increase export opportunities for UK automotive
businesses through tariff removal, flexible rules of origin, and efficient customs
procedures. This will ensure the UK automotive sector continues to meet the overseas
demand for UK cars.</p>
