Probably all of us know that the US automobile sector struggled to maintain sales momentum in August. Despite the fact that July was surprisingly robust, the industry recorded a major decline of 4.1% last month. Many automakers claim that they have reached a peak in demand.

It was also August 2014, and after the brand continued to s...
Two months after agreeing to a $14.7 billion deal with federal regulators over its cheating on diesel emissions tests, Volkswagen has reached another settlement covering its 650 U.S. dealers.The maker will pay $1.2 billion over the next 18 months to cover the losses dealers claim to have run up as a result of the scandal, in large part due to a sharp drop in the maker's sales. Along with cash payments, VW will provide "additional benefits" to those dealers. ‘‘They have cars on their lots they can’t sell,’’ Steve W. Berman, the lawyer for t...
Global car sales have gained momentum this year, rising a stronger-than-expected 5% through July. While gains are expected to moderate through year-end, strengthening labour markets and improving financial conditions suggest that the upswing will continue in 2017. There are still nearly 50 million vehicles on the road in the United States that were built prior to the new millennium, and as a result U.S. purchases are expected to continue to move higher for the remainder of the year and in 2017.
