It's three-quarters of the way through the year, and green-car watchers can probably surmise that 2016 won't likely be a banner year for sales of hybrids, plug-in hybrids, or – gasp – diesels. Through September, US green-car sales have fallen a solid 19 percent from a year earlier to about 321,000 units. And that's factoring plug-in vehicle sales that have risen 16 percent to almost 87,000 units. With that context, then, September wasn't a bad month: last month's green-car sales were down just one percent from a year earlier to more than 40,000 vehicles. &n...
Considering the gas prices are low as never before, Americans continue to show how much they are into big pickup trucks. A look at the top-selling new vehicles in the first nine months of the year shows that the U.S.' big three automakers are still the kings. Ford has the nation's best selling vehicle with its F-150, the next one comes General Motors with its Chevrolet Silverado, and the third one of course belongs to Fiat Chrysler's Ram 1500. The Ram's sales are up the most among these three models, with 8.6% more than the same period last year. The same three were ...
As we already know the U.S. car sales continued to soften this September, and are down 0.7% to 1.434m. The totals yielded a surprisingly robust seasonally adjusted annualized rate (SAAR) of 17.76m units, a solid rebound from August's 17.00m. The rate is down about 290,000 sales from last September. Sales are still slightly ahead of the first three quarters of 2015, it means a new annual record is still possible, although the outlook isn't favorable. Even though car manufacturers were running up incentives with about 2.5% compared to September 2015, they were down 0.2% compar...
Major automakers have posted their sales results for this September, and although we had high hopes on the discounts offered by General Motors and Ford Motor. Co, nothing saved the market from crashing down. The total industry sales were at 1.44 million vehicles, which is down 0.5% for a seasonally adjusted annualized rate of 17.76 million from 18.05 million in September 2015. The top-seller in the United States- GM, posted a 0.6%decline. Ford reported an 8% drop, and Fiat Chrysler Automobiles was down 1%. Shares of the three Detroit automakers rose, led by GM with a 0.8 percent gain. Sal...
Even as incentive spending reaches a record high, U.S. new-vehicle sales are projected to decline for a second consecutive month. The forecasts reinforce the notion that industry sales have leveled off after six consecutive years of gains coming out of the recession. But analysts say the market is not on the brink of a downturn, either. Auto sales are tracking just about even with last year’s record-breaking pace, so there’s good reason to believe that they’ve hit a high plateau. At the very least, automakers can feel good that sales are consistently hovering at o...
