Established in 1967, the Japan Automobile Manufacturers Association, Inc.
(JAMA) is a non-profit industry association which comprises Japan’s fourteen
manufacturers of passenger cars, trucks, buses and motorcycles. JAMA works
to support the sound development of the automobile industry, domestically and
globally, and to contribute to social and economic welfare. As directions in auto
manufacturing increasingly influence the world we live in, JAMA takes its role and
mission ever more seriously, on the road to sustainable mobility.
AboutJapanese Automakers in the EUEconomic advancement and transport sustainability:The road ahead for EU-Japan partnership
Japanese automakers are an enduring fixture of the European landscape. Since the launch of a first commercial vehicles manufacturing operations in Portugal in 1971 and fully-fledged passenger car manufacturing in the United Kingdom in 1986, Japanese automakers have made extensive investments in the European Union, based on the principle of building automobiles where significant demand exists. JAMA members conduct their business in Europe as constituent partners in the EU economy.
In 2014:- JAMA member companies operated 14 production plants in the EU as well as 17 R&D centres, the latter
dedicated to the design of vehicles that meet the specific needs of European users.- Those 14 plants’ annual production totalled 1.38 million vehicles, or more than two-thirds of all
Japanese-brand vehicles sold in the EU in 2014, of which 236,702 units were exported globally.- In JAMA members’ European production and R&D operations and in related distribution, sales and other
activities, 175,613 people were employed across the EU.- JAMA member companies’ purchases of EU-made parts in value terms totalled €12.73 billion.- JAMA members also sought to expand and deepen not only their operational ties with European vehicle
manufacturers but also their partnership projects with national and local public authorities and energy companies, targeting the development of next-generation clean-energy vehicles.
The European elections in May 2014 saw, as a result, the political overhaul of the European Commission and the European Parliament. Policy debates impacting the automotive sector, such as the revision of CARS 2020 and the setting of new targets for CO2 emissions reduction, have started under the new EU structure. In this environment, JAMA fully supports the EU’s policy objectives to ensure the long-term sustainability and competitiveness of the automotive industry in Europe.
JAMA advocates the early conclusion of an EU-Japan Economic Partnership Agreement (EPA), which will help the development of a sound business environment facilitating trade and investments between the EU and Japan. The bilateral economic growth and job creation anticipated through the implementation of such an agreement will also contribute to the growth of the world economy.
Regulatory cooperation, under the framework of the EU-Japan Industrial Policy Dialogue, is also of paramount importance to JAMA. Cooperation between regulators and policymakers at an early stage in the legislative process plays a crucial role in avoiding potentially damaging regulatory discrepancies and resolving existing ones. This cooperation will help to advance technical harmonisation in the automotive sector not only in the EU and Japan but also in third countries, even as it contributes to further enhancement of EU-Japan relations.
Working closely with the EU institutions, Japanese automakers are determined to strengthen their collaboration with European automakers for the ever-greater mutual development of the automotive sector in the coming decade.
