March U.S. auto sales are expected to approach a record for the month, and account for the first year-over-year increase in monthly sales so far in 2017. New-vehicle sales in March should top 1.6 million, the highest for the month of March since 2000. The forecast is based on online auto shopping behavior through the first part of March.

It is expected that U.S. new vehicle sales will decline slightly to 17.4 million units ...

Trump pushed automakers during a roundtable in Ypsilanti Township earlier this month for more U.S. plants, and in a speech to autoworkers the same day he said plants are coming back — other plants that were expected to be built in other countries are not being bui...
May be we have been living in the auto industry bubble, but it's time to look at things from a fresh perspective amid some worrying rounds of new data.
