Abstract

The objective of the study was to analyze the exports of motor vehicles in Brazil for the years 1997, 2002, 2007, 2012 and 2017. The methodology applied to carry out the analysis of the work was classified as an exploratory, descriptive and bibliographic research. In the Foreign Trade Statistics (Comex Stat) system, data were obtained on general exports and imports from Brazil, as well as export and import of motor vehicles, checking by destination states and countries for the selected period. In the National Association of Motor Vehicle Manufacturers (ANFAVEA) were extracted information on the total production of vehicles in Brazil for the selected periods. In the Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics (IBGE) data were used for the total Brazilian GDP for the selected years, analyzing their behavior over the period. In fact, economic events such as trade liberalization, local economic reforms and the integration of MERCOSUR have contributed to the strengthening of the automotive sector. Among the destination countries of the vehicles, Argentina was configured as the main partner, with the largest number of vehicles exported to the country. The state of São Paulo is the main exporter of vehicles in selected years, but the North and Northeast has been gaining ground. Therefore, the exports of the vehicles in question have a good representation for the Brazilian economy, making the automotive industry one of the sectors expressive for the country. For this reason, it should be understood as market possibilities to be strengthened by the potential of the auto industry in general.
