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. ...
China isn’t the only one beating U.S. when it comes to car sales and car production Europe is on its way to do the same.

US car sales are expected to fall this year from 2016’s record levels, while Europe’s are forecast to rise slightly, in spite of near-record sales last year. Ford announced first-quarter earnings sharply down on the year, with pre-tax profit falling $1.5bn to...
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.

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...

Cadillac marketing chief Uwe Ellinghaus claims that the U.S. sales party isn't over yet. U.S. sales will probably plateau this year just below 2016’s record finish and hover at near-record levels for some time. He says that what others call a “cooling off” is probably the best thing that has ever happened, because levels that were once seen as excessive are now sustainable. U.S. sales edged ahead 0.3 percent in 2016 to end the year at 17.5 million units, a seventh straight year of gains. Through March of this year, however, sales were down 1.6 percent, with Ca...
