According to Gabriel Padilla, director of the National Auto Parts Industry (INA), the auto parts sector in Mexico is experiencing a significant increase in demand for electronic parts, such as harnesses and other electrical components. This growth is driven by the trend towards electromobility, and it is estimated that sales of these products could exceed double digits annually, reaching a growth of 15% to 17%.
Investment and development opportunities
Padilla highlighted that the Mexican auto parts industry is adopting various strategies to strengthen its technological capacity and attract investments in innovation. In this sense, the industry expects to receive around 2.7 billion dollars in investments by 2025, exceeding the 2.55 billion projected for this year.
Focus on talent training
The leader also stressed the importance of promoting specialized talent, particularly in key areas such as electromobility, 4.0 technology, robotics, process automation and artificial intelligence. According to Padilla, this preparation is essential for Mexico to remain competitive and meet international commitments to reduce pollutants.
Mexico: Key supplier for the United States
The projected growth in the sector is also reflected in the production figures for electric and hybrid vehicles in Mexico, which reached 159,792 units between January and November of this year. The value of auto parts production in Mexico is expected to reach 127.5 billion dollars in 2025, consolidating the country as the main supplier of auto parts for the United States, its key trading partner.
This panorama reflects how electromobility is transforming the auto parts sector in Mexico, opening up new investment opportunities and reinforcing the country's competitiveness in the global market.
