Moroccan Cars to Lead Spain Market by 2026
The article focused on the Dacia Sandero car, which is produced almost entirely in Morocco, topping the new car sales in the Spanish market in 2026. Between January and August 2026, 23,769 Sandero vehicles were registered in Spain, surpassing other models such as the Seat Ibiza and Toyota Corolla. The majority of this model is manufactured in Morocco, where the Renault factory in Tangier produced 222,257 cars in 2025, in addition to 49,538 cars from the SomaCa factory in Casablanca, bringing the North African total to approximately 98.2% of the global Sandero production, which reached 276,817 cars in 2025. These figures reflect the strong economic ties between Morocco and Spain, especially in the automotive sector, which is the primary source of Moroccan exports—about 20% of which go to Spain. Meanwhile, Spanish political parties are calling for reevaluating the relationship, particularly following the migration crisis in Ceuta. Nonetheless, the data still show a close and intertwined economic relationship between the two countries, despite political moves aimed at reviewing and freezing cooperation in some areas.
