Both home and overseas growth are critical for UK Automotive
The UK automotive sector’s potential to deliver regional and national growth hinges upon the ability to trade successfully – here in Britain and, as an export-led sector, in international markets where British-built products represent engineering excellence. SMMT has been working for many years to translate UK automotive expertise into new overseas opportunities, helping companies expand and diversify in new markets, secure potentially transformative new partnerships, and work with policymakers to overcome trade barriers.
