Europe-wide industry groups and 21 national auto associations, including Britain's Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders, said new tariffs on cars and vans could cost the EU/U.K. industry 5.7 billion euros if Britain departs the European Union without an agreement.The U.K. is due to leave the EU on Oct. 31, and British Prime Minister Boris Johnson has said it will do so come what may.
The auto industry, including associated suppliers, is a European success story, producing a little more than 19 million vehicles a year and employing nearly 14 million people. Key to the industry's success in the past few years has been the ability of firms to seamlessly operate and source across the EU's single market - the so-called just-in-time operating model.
The automotive industry groups said the cost of just one minute of production stoppage in the U.K. amounts to 54,700 euros .
