French cars are obviously very popular among motorists and have long been at the top of the list of best-selling models. In 2022, Peugeot 208 took the first place, and Renault Clio took 3rd place, just behind the Romanian Dacia Sandero. It is followed by Citroën C3, Peugeot 2008, Renault Captur and Peugeot 308 and 3008. But be careful, because not all tricolor cars are made in France. For example, the 208 is assembled in Trnava, Slovakia, while the Clio comes straight from Turkey. On the other hand, some foreign brands do manufacture their cars here.

Toyota after all

This is especially true for Toyota, which owns Onnaing factory, located in the north near Valenciennes. A production site operating since 2001, which in 2022 recorded the second highest volume since its inception. And it is the Japanese brand that produces the most cars in France. Indeed, after the standard Yaris, it is the Cross version that becomes the most produced car in the territory. So, in 2022, 161,508 units were collected here, ahead of the Peugeot 3008 by 2,342 units (total in 2022 – 159,166).

Yaris is moving

therefore City SUV ahead of Yaris, which had to change factories. Indeed, the French plant did not offer sufficient capacity to accommodate the production of two cars. Thus, the city car is now produced in the Kolin network in the Czech Republic. In fact, it was released before the end of marketing and production Citroën C1 and other Peugeot 108s Last year. Note that the new Aygo X is also assembled there.
