In the main business, the original and replacement market share of Michelin passenger car and light truck tires has expanded by 3% globally. Among them, the share of original tire market was the largest, and Michelin's share of Africa, India, and the Middle East changed the most in 2016, and the number of tires rose by 9%. Followed by Asia (excluding India), an increase of 7%, Asia's growth is mainly due to the Chinese government's compact vehicle purchase incentives and high growth of SUV models. Secondly, Europe and North America have seen a large change in growth, with the South American market falling by 12%.

In 2016, the fluctuation of raw material prices had a certain impact on sales and sales of Michelin. At the beginning of 2017, the prices of various raw materials, especially natural rubber, continued to rise, causing global tire brands to raise product prices one after another.

With regard to the impact of rising raw materials, Michelin expects the impact of rising raw material costs in 2017 to be around 900 million euros. For this reason, Michelin will manage prices flexibly in order to expect the unit's gross margin to remain stable in the business areas that are not subject to index terms.

Michelin CEO Jean-Dominique Senard stated: “2016 is an important milestone on our strategic blueprint. Our performance is once again ahead of the market as a whole and we have achieved growth thanks to Michelin. Our brand strength is also the result of our dedication to innovation and our unremitting efforts. Our improvement in customer service and the success of mid-level products have all contributed to growth. We have developed a pricing policy based on our technological advantages, and we have continued to improve. The competitiveness has helped the Group achieve its financial goals set in early 2016. Looking ahead, 2017 is expected to become another growth year, which is also consistent with the Group's 2020 goals.”

In 2017, Michelin set a goal of achieving simultaneous sales growth in line with global market trends, with recurring project operating profits at or above 2016 levels (calculated at constant exchange rates) and structural free cash flow exceeding 900 million euros.
