We provided you with information about April car sales in US and told you about the results the major automakers got, but what you still don’t know is where, in which state exactly the electric car sales were up and where they were down.California, dominates! It’s number one, with a per capita percentage of 0,7%, beating Hawaii with 0,4% and Washington with 0,3%. If you ask yourself why is is California, than we will try to make it a bit clearer for you our dear readers: → California has long offered a decent EV rebate (typically, $2,500).→ California’s p...
We knew that when automakers will reveal their April car sales the results will be disappointing, but we had no idea the sales will be this low. The auto industry might be receding from its breakneck pace, which means the chances of getting a third consecutive year with positive results are not so high. Overall, the industry reported a 4.7% sales decline to 1.43 million units. General Motors, Ford, Fiat Chrysler and Nissan each reported deeper-than-expected sales declines for the month. Toyota narrowly edged expectations, but it still recorded a 4.4% decline for the month, compared ...
Another year-over-year decline in the automotive industry. This April wasn’t that successful as automakers and dealerships wanted them to be, and this is why we have such low car sales predictions. Declines will be broad-based, with General Motors, Ford, Fiat Chrysler and all other major automakers expected to report lower sales. Meanwhile, Tesla shares soared to a record high Monday ahead of the electric vehicle maker's earnings Wednesday. April auto sales will likely come in at a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 17.1 million, down 1% vs. a year earlier. But that would ...
We’ve got for you a new forecast, and we are afraid it’s not a positive one. Expect the new car sales in U.S. to drop 3.1% in April to 1.445M units. Sales for mid-size SUVs/crossovers are expected to be 8%, while compact and small car sales are seen falling. Mid-size SUVs appear to have the largest impact in swaying consumers from buying mid-size cars and minivans, both of which are down 20 percent this year. The 2017 calls for U.S. auto sales might be approximately in the range of 16.8M to 17.3M units, which represents a 1% to 4% decline from last year. ...
About one in seven driving Americans may likely purchase an electric vehicle as their next car, according to an AAA poll, meaning that as many as 30 million Americans may pony up for an electric car within the next three to five years. While some of the motivation is environmental, survey recipients say that lower maintenance expenses and solo access to high-occupancy-vehicle lanes are also among the factors behind potentially going electric. The poll indicates that about as many people are planning to buy an electric vehicle for their next car as are looking to buy a pickup, which...
