Tomorrow the U.S. May auto sales will get revealed by the automakers, but before that here’s what specialists forecast. Expect the car sales to edge up 0.2% in May to 1.525M units. Sales for mid-size SUVs/crossovers are expected to jump 10%, while compact and mid-size car sales are seen dropping. Retail numbers for May are expected to finish strong, however they continue to be supported by considerable incentives and lease subvention. In recent months, leasing appears to be reaching its peak, which is expected, given declining residual values and which is contributing to this ...
U.S. auto sales this May are expected to be flat if we compare them with 2016 auto sales for the same month, but considering all the signs of stagnation isn’t that a good thing? Automakers in the U.S. market will report May sales on Thursday, June 1. The long Memorial Day weekend and sales promotions traditionally give May sales a boost. U.S. auto sales were down a disappointing 4.7 percent in April, compared with April 2016. Year to date, auto sales were down 2.4 percent after four months. It’s well documented by now that the slowdown in sales is hitting passe...
U.S. is Tesla’s the most important market even though it is increasingly focusing on other markets, like China. Admit it, you were just as us shocked when the automaker revealed that it delivered 25,202 Model S sedans in the U.S. in 2015. This huge deliveries gave Tesla a 25% market share in the premium sedan market. Some industry watchers thought that it might be a fluke, but the latest registration data suggests that Tesla is still maintaining its lead in the large luxury sedan segment in 2017. The company’s goal has always been to make the best vehicle possible t...
U.S. new-vehicle sales are expected to rise very slightly in May from a year ago, narrowly snapping the industry's streak of four consecutive monthly declines. Analysts expect 2017 sales of 17.2 million, 2 percent fewer than the record 17.55 million sold last year. The annualized selling rate is projected to be less than 17 million for a third consecutive month, more evidence that the market has passed its peak. That would mean the industry will already have had as many sub-17 million months in 2017 as it did in each of the past two full years. Other forecasts project sales-volu...
According to a well-known German source, the president of U.S. is ready to fight Germany in an auto battle. At the NATO summit in Belgium, mr. Trump got a chilly reception, after attacking fellow members. But he was caught pledging a battle with German automakers as part of his anger with “back dues” he feels the country owes to NATO. In a discussion about the country’s trade surplus, Trump said. “The Germans are evil, very evil.” “Look at the millions of cars they sell in the US, and we’ll stop that,” sources told Der Spiegel. A...
