Meanwhile, the value of domestic auto parts production has reached US$4,228 at the start of the fiscal year and has grown by 11.8% compared to the same period last year, according to data from the National Auto Parts Industry Registry (INA).

Querétaro has posted the fifth-highest annual growth rate, ranking among the top 10 producing states during a period in which five states achieved double-digit growth.

Based on cumulative figures, Querétaro remained the fifth-largest producer, accounting for 8% of Mexico’s auto parts production. The top spots are held by Coahuila, Guanajuato, Nuevo León, and Chihuahua, which together accounted for 87% of national production.

The Bajío region, which is part of Querétaro, has produced various auto parts with a value of US$19,009 million, representing a 9.2% year-over-year increase. It is also the second-largest contributor to the industry, accounting for 35.9% of the national total, surpassed only by the northern region, which leads the chart with a 44.1% share. In third place is the central region, which accounts for 14.9% of the total; it is the area that has shown the greatest annual growth, followed by the Bajío and the north.

Querétaro is one of the producing states that outpaced the industry’s national growth, with a value of US$52, 8 billion at the start of the year, representing a 10% increase. However, the country’s cumulative value is 0.4% below that of previous periods, such as the industry’s record year of 2024.
