According to The International Trade Administration, U.S. Department of Commerce, the automotive industry is significant in Mexico; it employs over one million people. This country produces around 3.7 million cars every year, being the fifth largest producer of auto parts, the sixth largest producer of passenger vehicles, and the world's leading exporter of tractor trucks. It exports 90% of its vehicle production, and it is the largest export market for U.S. auto parts (79% of its exports go there). Based on what was established in the UMSCA agreement, it is required that 75% of the automotive products are produced in North America, and that the main auto parts come from México, Canadá, or the U.S. to receive duty-free access.
