We’ve got a new forecast for you, before the real car sales results get revealed at the beginning of March. Expect for the auto market to sell 1,331,787 new cars and trucks in the US this month. This will be a 17% increase from last month, but a 1% decrease from February 2016. Also it was estimated that approximately 3.4 million used vehicles will be sold in February, compared to 3 million last month. The long Presidents' Day holiday weekend undoubtedly contributed to the increase in sales from January. Typically, the holiday boosts sales volume by 20% compared to an avera...
US car sales declined during January, we think the reason is pretty obvious: high incentive in December, low sales in January. Even so, the analysts are pretty sure that vehicles sales last month showed good results, and it won’t be the same for February. Customer confidence, better deals on vehicles and low gasoline prices will raise the demand for vehicles once summer sets. The seasonally adjusted annualized sales rate stood at 17.6 million vehicles for the month as compared with 17.9 million vehicles from the last year. Here's a detailed look at the auto sales of the automake...
We’ve had a lot of signs that the electric car market has been rising for a lot of time, and its shares have risen through 2016 even more, but now we know that they shot up by 37%. We’ve got approximately over 30 battery-powered and plug-in hybrids offerings on the market, that’s like 159,139 vehicles for the US.

Of course, the sales jump by 37% comes following a five percent decline in sales from 2014 to 2015. The slight increase has spurr...
General Motors Co. and Toyota Motor Corp. officials will tell a U.S. House panel that need changes to automotive safety rules to allow the deployment of self-driving cars on American roads. Mike Abelson, vice president of global strategy at GM, said that without changes to those regulations, it may be years before the promise of today’s technology can be realized and thousands of preventable deaths that could have been avoided will happen. On Monday, Sen. Gary Peters, D-Mich., and Senator John Thune, the Republican chairman of the Commerce Committee, said in a joint statement...
After limited availability of Lexus models which led to a 26 percent fall in sales last month, we have realized that the carmaker is really short on supplies. It keeps on getting better this month, at least that’s what the general manager of Toyota’s luxury brand is trying to convince us about. Even so we’ve heard that the supplies won’t normalize until March. Bracken said Lexus sold so many units in December that it went into the new year strapped for utility vehicles such as its top-selling RX, leading to a softer January than expected. Lexus sold 15,572 ve...
