Automotive industry in Slovakia
Since 2007, Slovakia has been the world's largest producer of cars per capita, with a total of 571,071 cars manufactured in the 2007 alone in a country with 5 million people. With production of nearly 1 million cars in 2013 was Slovakia 18th in the list of worldwide car production by country. Automotive is the largest industry in Slovakia with a share of 12% on the Slovak GDP in 2013 which was 41% of industrial production and 26% of Slovakia export. 80 000 people were employed in the automotive industry in 2014, which will be even increased when Jaguar Land Rover will start production in Nitra in 2018.
==History==
First automobile fully constructed in Slovakia "Drndička" was made by the blacksmith Michal Majer in 1913. He copied a car of the Bulgarian King who was at that time living in Slovakia. After WWI (in 1918) Slovakia became a part of the newly formed Czechoslovakia. In the Czech part the industry had been influenced mostly by Germans - see for example the dispute about the design of Tatra T97 by ''Hans Ledwinka'' vs Volkswagen Beetle design by Ferdinand Porsche, who was also born also in Bohemia (now part of the Czech Republic). Czech long tradition of car production started in 1897, when in the factory in Kopřivnice (Nesselsdorfer Wagenbaufabriksgesellschaft later Tatra) was produced the first Czech car (Präsident) and in 1898 the first lorry. Škoda Auto (and its predecessors) is the five oldest companies producing cars and has an unbroken history. First Škoda motorcycle made its debut in 1899 and in 1905 the firm started manufacturing automobiles. Already before WWII was the automotive industry a significant and advanced part of the economy of the former Czechoslovakia. Post-war socialist Czechoslovakia restored auto manufacturing with original brands and became the second (after Poland) in Soviet block outside the USSR. Brands Skoda cars and trolleybuses, Tatra and Avia trucks and trams, Karosa buses and Jawa and ČZ motorcycles were all completed in Bohemia or Moravia, but not in Slovakia. Companies in Slovakia like Matador Púchov, VSŽ Košice (steal mills) and others were supplying parts and components to Czech part of the republic but later (from 1971) the part of final production of Skoda cars was established also in Slovakia as Bratislava Automotive Works (BAZ) and Trnava Automotive Works (TAZ) and of Tatra cars in Banovce nad Bebravou. However, following the dissolution of Czechoslovakia in 1993, the Czech Republic has inherited most of its auto capabilities and then has grown fast by foreign investments. Even the Volkswagen bought Skoda Slovak production sites in Slovakia already in 1991 it got the full control only in 1999 when Volkswagen Slovakia was established, which actually started the fast development of the auto-industry in Slovakia.
