just-auto.com Forecasts Production and Sales in Germany to 2004

    LONDON, March 7 http://www.just-auto.com -- Both the car
and commercial vehicle markets and production in Germany fell in 2000 and are
expected to fall again in 2001.  However, Germany is the biggest vehicle
producer in Western Europe and figures are expected to rise again in 2002.
    However, while domestic demand for vehicles has been subdued, export
demand rose last year.  And in spite of the weak domestic market, the German
manufacturers benefited from German consumers' preference for German brands.
The top 15 selling models in Germany last year all belonged to German brands.
