As demand for the new E-class and SUVs rose, Mercedes-Benz took the lead in the luxury-car sales segment, its sales rose up to 11% in June. As we know for years, BMW, Audi and Mercedes have always been competitors to each other, being three most well-known and trusted German automakers. For so many years the first sales spot between them has been taken by BMW, and only know Mercedes was able to outrun it. Sales of BMW brand vehicles rose 2 percent to 192,873 last month, while third-placed Audi saw sales rise 1 percent to 170,650. Through June, Mercedes sold ...
Toyota Motor Corp. posted its first U.S. sales gain of the year, despite a continuing slide at Lexus, as light-truck deliveries overcame weakness in cars. The automaker's 2.1 percent increase ended a drought that had seen sales fall 4.7 percent through May. Lexus, however, dropped 5.4 percent, for its ninth consecutive monthly decline. Sales at Toyota Division, including a small number of vehicles from the defunct Scion brand, grew 3.2 percent last month to 177,981 vehicles. For the first half of the year, the automaker reported a sales drop of 3.6 percent compared with the same...
Audi's U.S. chief expects the brand to post another U.S. sales record in 2017. It's an ambitious goal, given that U.S. sales this year are expected to be flat, especially in the luxury car market. Scott Keogh, president of Audi of America, said he's convinced Audi can do it — without resorting to excessive incentives — based on the strength of its lineup. Keogh says they broke through 210,000 units last year. He thinks it's worth pointing out that if we look at Audi America in general, it took them 40 years to sell 100,000 cars for the very first time. Th...
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...
The 2017 Fiat 124 Spider is stylish, fun to drive and priced well under $30,000 for all but the top version. It's easily the best car in Fiat's four-vehicle U.S. lineup and a worthy successor to the storied original Fiat 124 Spider that debuted in November 1966. But the reincarnation of that iconic Italian sports car is built in Japan by Mazda. The two-seat convertible coupe -- powered by a turbocharged inline-four -- shares a platform with Mazda's MX-5 Miata, and the cars are built in the same plant. But the 124 Spider has a Fiat engine and transmission that together pro...
