UK car industry calls for tariff-free deal with EU as output slumps

Britain's car industry body called on Prime Minister Boris Johnson to secure a tariff-free trade deal with the European Union which avoids barriers for businesses as production slumped in November.

Output fell 16.5 percent last month to 107,753 cars, continuing a trend of decline in 2019 which leaves output down 14.5% in the first 11 months of the year to 1.2 million vehicles, according to the Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders (SMMT).

"UK car production is export-led, so we look forward to working with the new government to deliver an ambitious trade deal with the EU," said SMMT Chief Executive Mike Hawes.

"That deal needs to be tariff-free and avoid barriers to trade, which, for automotive, means that our standards must be aligned."
