Trailer, Caravan & Car Body Manufacturing in Norway Industry Data and Analysis
European manufacturers of trailers, caravans and motor vehicle bodies faced significant challenges amid subdued demand, primarily driven by a downturn in car production across the continent. According to the European Automobile Manufacturers’ Association, Europe’s car output fell to 14,4 million units in 2025, a sharp decline from 18.2 million in 2019, leading to a direct reduction in car body orders. The UK reported a steeper drop, with production falling **% between 2019 and 2025, as reported by the SMMT, constraining revenue growth in the sector. However, a rebound is anticipated in 2026, fuelled by recovering downstream sales and a surge in hybrid and battery-electric vehicle production. European car manufacturers are investing heavily in producing electric vehicles to meet rising demand as interest in diesel vehicles drops, elevating orders for vehicle bodies.
