This March will be launched new 17 registration plates in the new car market-which means rich pickings for buyers in the used car sector. With the way that many cars are financed these days over a three year term, tens of thousands of models from 2014 will be coming back for specialist dealers to buy for their customers. To keep within the conditions of the finance package these cars will have been serviced every year and will be within the agreed mileage limit.

In February 2017, Ford’s F-Series truck US sales stood at 65,956 units with a YoY increase of ~9%. During the month, the strong demand for the newly launched F-Series Super Duty trucks continued in the company’s Retail segment.

This strength was consistent with the robust retail sales performance of F-Series trucks in January 2017. In January 2016, the company sold 57,995 units of F-Series trucks, which was 13% higher on a YoY basis. These strengthening sales of Fo...

Bad news, U.S. auto sales showed to be even less resilient this month than anticipated. If we have to compare these results with February last year, than they are down 1.1%. Automakers like General Motors (GM), American Honda Motor Co., and Nissan North America reported new-car sales gains from a year ago. Volkswagen Group, plus the premium German nameplates and three independent brands, also posted sales increases. However, Ford Motor Co. (Ford) a...
We have a new forecast for this month’s car sales and it includes a 3.3% drop to only 1.3 million units. Await for a decrease of 21% for the mid-size cars. Even with all the drops and decreases we can still say that the sales pace for the industry is healthy, and what’s more important it looks sustainable, as we head into high volume selling months ahead. Retail growth for manufacturers will be tough to achieve in February, as consumer demand remains relatively flat despite increased incentives. Regardless of the expected dip in overall volume, at a SAAR of more than 17 ...
