Growth in car production recorded in July

Polish factories produced 56,512 passenger cars and vans in July 2014, according to data from sector research firm Samar quoted by the Polish Press Agency. The figure grew by 11.74 percent year-on-year and by 3.96 percent month-on-month. In January-July car production amounted to 372,556, 4.47 percent more than in the corresponding period of 2013. “Domestic passenger car and van producers have started their summer vacation season. Despite that, the July result was higher than the one recorded in June, for the first time in several years,” Samar said.
