Analysts were expecting China to sell more than 60,000 green cars and hybrids but the truth is that only 44,874 new electric cars were sold by December. But let's be honest, even with these results they outsold more plug-in vehicles than US or Europe did. Overall China car sales share rose to a record of 1.45% above the USA (0.8%) and Europe (1.4%). Despite the “disappointing” plateauing in December, which is a bit like what happens when you expect that Usain Bolt will break the 0–100 meter world record every time he goes on the track, looking at the big pictur...
The car market is supported by the stronger global economic growth, and the car sales are showing steady growth. Gains are expected to continue, of course the top will be reached more slower compared to the last few years, but the most important thing at this step is that another annual record is coming. Increased replacement demand in the U.S. will be complemented by a renewed sales upturn in most emerging markets; however, China is the exception, with an expected slowdown. In the United States, we see increased replacement demand, growing consumer confidence and attractive financi...
Tighter emissions rules in China and Europe put the global automakers and some consumers in tough situations, with an only choice they'll have to face, we are talking about embracing plug-in vehicles.

In Europe, green cars benefit increasingly from subsidies, tax breaks and other perks, while combustion engines face mounting penalties including driving and parking restrictions. China, struggling with catastrophic pollution levels in major cities, is aggressively pushing plug-in ve...
The US car buyers are showing signs of fatigue, raising concerns over the broader outlook for consumer spending—a key engine of U.S. Growth. Sales of light vehicles in the U.S. have increased for six straight years, touching a record 17.5 million units in 2015, and are potentially on track for another record this year. But sales now appear to have plateaued, leading to a buildup of inventory and a return to discounting—something auto makers swore off when emerging from the recession. Dealership sales, measured in dollars, fell a seasonally adjusted 0.5% in November from ...
Global car sales have a big chance to set another record year. This extends gains to a seventh consecutive annual record and surpasses the previous upcycle which lasted six years. Purchases will be buoyed by improving labour markets at the fastest pace since early 2007 and a bottoming in purchases across emerging markets. Economic growth in developing countries is expected to pick up for the first time since 2010, helping reverse last year's slide in car sales which was driven by sharp contractions in both Russia and Brazil. Low gasoline prices, improving household balance sheet...
