How big can the car market be in Mexico? The only reason companies are building down there is to avoid US production (higher wages and regulations). Without NAFTA, there wouldn't be car production in Mexico.

GM needs to take notice...

Honda has a plant in Mexico that builds the Fit and HRV.

The Pilot, Odyssey and Ridgeline are built in Alabama.

In Ohio the Accord (99% of the world production) and the CRV are built.

We export to other countries these American built vehicles, and import some from other countries...

It will be interesting to see how this plays out.

It seems to be about 1/6 the size of the US market. Quite a significant number at around 100,000 new registrations per year.
