As a percentage of total sales, the 2.2% figure represents sales in the new- and used-vehicle departments and the service and parts departments. Some 42% of dealers report declined sto...

Domenicali said the company plans to cap yearly production of its supercars at 3,500. He also expects SUV production will be at least as high but could be higher depending on demand.
