Not long ago the region which was taken by Toyota Motor Corp. was composed of more than half diesel cars, and now it got changed by the car brand. In more than a year Toyota is ready to report a leap in hybrid vehicle sales for this year. Toyota's goal right now is to enlarge its hybrid sales, until they reach the half of its worldwide sales, until the end of decade.Toyota had decided a few years ago to avoid taking on diesel cars in Europe. While demand for the Prius was increasing in the U.S. and other markets, it was barely being noticed in Europe. Its strategy was based on a...
Compact SUVs this year were able to outsold the sedans in US, which might be a big step for them, but for sedans it means they are not popular anymore, and the sedans sales decreased a lot. In 2015, for the first time ever, compact SUVs outsold sedans in the U.S. Consumers continued to ditch sedans for SUVs this year. For example, while still the best-selling sedan in the U.S., sales of the Toyota Camry dropped ten percent in 2016. Sales of other formerly popular sedans plummeted even further. Gas prices remain low, and SUVs are a lot more fuel efficient than they used to be. &...
Yes, this year will go down as another big year for the U.S. auto industry. The question is whether it will go down as another record year. Following a strong November showing, total U.S. sales through 11 months this year have surpassed those through the same point in 2015, which went down as the strongest sales year on record.

As 2016 is almost over, the U.S. auto market is on the verge of setting a new sales record, beating last year's mark of 17.5 million new cars and trucks. Auto sales have been booming for several years, powered by a combination of cheap gas, easy credit, and pent-up demand. And with the unemployment rate now below 5%, there are plenty of Americans who now need a reliable, technologically up-to-date vehicle to get to and from work. Although some analysts think the market has plateaued and that there's no more growth to be had, the fundamentals point to continued strong sales b...
The U.S. automotive business appears to be easing off the accelerator a bit heading into 2017. The bottom line of sales (rates) are still pretty high, but they are plateauing and it is taking more effort in terms of promotion and incentives to keep sales higher. And the specialists expect that will be more of the same next year. With sales leveling off, inventories are rising. When inventories rise, automakers put more incentives on. Incentives are the highest they have been in a long time. There are certain cars that are absolute bargains, especially compact, subcompact and midsize...
