充满机会的土地
波兰、匈牙利、捷克共和国、罗马尼亚及斯洛伐克汽车生产发展幅度大，东欧仍然能够吸引OEM制造商的眼球。在20世纪末，21世纪初，东欧到俄罗斯边境的地方都得到了来自欧洲、日本和韩国汽车公司的巨大投资，希望以低成本制造汽车和组件。大部分大型汽车品牌都在这个地区投资，虽然成本升高，投资还在继续。举例来说，梅赛德斯证实，要在波兰建设发动机工厂，这是德国以外欧洲的第一家发动机工厂。这个决定多少受到波兰对德国成本竞争力的影响，但是更基本的推动力来自德国的产量不足，以及梅赛德斯的需要 — 正如其他汽车制造商 — 来平衡国内与欧洲生产足迹。地区生产不断增加近年来，波兰、匈牙利、捷克共和国、罗马尼亚和斯洛伐克的生产增长巨大；其中斯洛伐克的进步最为明显，2015年的生产超过100万，而且预计还会出现进一步增长。大众集团去年的生产近400,000辆，Kia汽车338,000辆，PSA超过303,000辆。这些工厂都计划提高生产量，增加新车型，而且Jaguar Land Rover也要很快步其后尘：英国公司将进军欧洲大陆，2018年在斯洛伐克建厂，而期待已久的Defender替代车型可能成为第一个走下装配线的车型。初期的产量为每年150,000辆，Defender系列还会增加新成员；从长期来看，新的工厂产量可能每年增长到300,000辆，与英国其他工厂的产量相近。PSA在斯洛伐克的工厂是一个有趣的例子：PSA需要离开高成本的法国，2015年在斯洛伐克工厂的生产提高了近19%；去年的产量接近303,000辆，工厂在2016年的产量可能会达到315,000辆，2017年会达到345,000辆，2018年会达到360,000辆。往年，产量中比例最大的就是Peugeot 208,2015年占到生产的85%，但是新款Citroen C3也加入斯洛伐克（新款C3 Picasso将转移到西班牙欧宝工厂），C3将占到PSA斯洛伐克工厂约35-40%的生产。有人认为，PSA正在考虑在东欧建设新的工厂，并减少在法国的生产，尤其是小型汽车。捷克共和国的生产发展强劲捷克共和国的生产在2015年达到近130万辆，比2014年增长3%；但是，现代汽车在捷克工厂的生产增长了11%，超过342,000辆，2016年的目标是350,000辆。也是在捷克共和国，Skoda — 以及SEAT — 车型的生产不断增加。为了帮助SEAT分公司盈利，大众公司决定在Skoda车型里增加最近的S能够EAT车型和未来车型，并由Skoda生产；这样，SEAT Toledo就成为Skoda Rapid，而新款SEAT Ateca SUV也是有Skoda生产；在未来的5年里，第二个SEAT SUV也是有Skoda生产。 While most OEMs in Eastern Europe supplying into the EU, Hyundai and Kia output reaches other markets, notably Russia匈牙利增加高端品牌近些年，最引人注目的发展莫过于匈牙利奥迪的生产 — 包括汽车和发动机 — 而且会有更多的梅赛德斯会在匈牙利生产。JLR很快会在斯洛伐克生产汽车，而且保时捷也会在斯洛伐克大众工厂生产新一代Cayenne，这样这个地区会生产50多万辆的高端品牌汽车。2016年，梅赛德斯匈牙利宣布了10亿欧元的偶自己花，建立第二个装配车间，生产前轮和后轮驱动汽车；梅赛德斯有可能将C-级产品从Bremen转移到这个工厂，缓冲Bremen工厂（是最复杂的梅赛德斯生产线之一）的生产压力。韩国制造商的成功现代和起亚在捷克共和国和斯洛伐克兼有汽车厂、发动机厂和变速器厂，并把一打多的韩国供应商都带到这个地区；汽车厂一年能生产300,000多辆汽车，而发动机和变速器工厂的产量能够达到自给自足。Hyundai-Mobis工厂（制造前部模块和底盘）和Dymos（座椅与泡沫制造商）是该地区最大的韩国投资商。虽然大多数东欧制造商都向欧盟出口，但是现代和起亚却向其他市场出口，比如俄罗斯。而且现代汽车公司向澳大利亚出口i30汽车。东欧不仅向欧盟市场出口不仅是现代和起亚向欧洲以外的地方出口。比如菲亚特 — 获得欧洲投资银行的大笔资助 — 收购了Yugo在塞尔维亚Zastava的工厂，将其作为500L，5座和7座小型MPV的唯一生产厂。在那里生产的100,000辆中的大多数都向欧盟出口（大约5%出口到美国），但是也向俄罗斯出口；2016年8月，签订了一份协议之后，500L将只在欧洲其他地区生产，主要是为了前独联体国家，此前哈萨克斯坦拒绝了塞尔维亚自由贸易协定。多种市场情况都阻碍了工厂的雇佣，今年从3班制减少到2班，员工数量从高分期的3,200人降低到900人。在波兰北部，通用汽车生产Cascada轿车 — 敞篷车，在北美以Buick汽车出售，在澳大利亚以Hodlen汽车出售，同时在欧洲市场出口Opel和Vauxhall汽车。澳大利亚供应从2015年2月开始，Buick车型从11月开始出口，而第一批Buick车型刚刚一个月前生产。Holden版的Astra有望在今年年底向澳大利亚出口。在匈牙利，铃木已经生产20多年的汽车和SUV了；目前公司制造SX-4跨级车和Vitara SUV ；而SX4也在其他地区生产。匈牙利是Vitara的唯一生产地。出口市场包括巴西，从2016年末开始出口。减少对高成本德国的依赖梅赛德斯在匈牙利生产汽车，而且要将产量加倍，在罗马尼亚生产变速器；到2019年初位置，公司要在波兰Jawor（在波兰南部湿地）生产发动机。公司将投资约5亿欧元，生产4缸柴油发动机和汽油发动机。大众已经扩大波兰新建商务车系列，计划制造Crafter汽车，之前这款车是在与梅赛德斯的协议下制造的。但是在想Poznan新厂投资7.5亿欧元之后（就在制造小型Caddy厢型车和Transporter中型厢型车工厂的旁边），新厂每年将制造100,000辆汽车，比原来梅赛德斯30,000-40,000产量高得多。与联合会谈判的筹码很长时间来，菲亚特利用波兰工厂打败了意大利联合会的需求；因为菲亚特转型意大利的生产线，专注生产菲亚特SUV，Jeep和Alfa，以及其他Alfa汽车。菲亚特在意大利生产的唯一车型是Panda。500L汽车除了在塞尔维亚生产之外，500还在波兰生产，菲亚特还在这里制造Punto的替代品，预计会称作500 ...
