Hyundai USA and its smaller affiliate Kia Motors revealed their US sales and it turns out that even though their sales in China plunged 65%, the situation was a bit different here in US. Their combined sales in the U.S. market fell 1.9 percent in April and 11.5 percent in May, continuing on the downward spiral.

By brand, Hyundai Motor sold a total of 60,011 units in the U.S. last month, do...
Automakers are expected to report flat US car sales in May vs. a year earlier after demand fell in the first four months of 2017. Smaller and crossover SUVs are expected to offset continued weakness in cars, with General Motors likely to be the biggest beneficiary. Fiat Chrysler and Ford Motor are likely to see new-vehicle sales fall. Japanese automakers such as Honda should eke out tiny gains while South Korea's Hyundai-Kia, with far more cars in the vehicle mix, could see the biggest drop. Tesla does not provide monthly sales figures. Tesla will soon start rolling out its mass-market Mod...
Although Panasonic Corp. is an electronics company, it's becoming quite the rev head.

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...
Since the US auto sales were steadily rising, they have helped the country to recover economically, but now as the car sales drop and the economy is also under pressure. US carmakers have started to idle workers for months at a time.Trump has touted the auto sector - which he previously lambasted for moving production to Mexico - as proof of his programme's success. "We're going to have expansion," he told reporters last week. Following seven years of steady growth that led to sales records in 2015 and 2016, deliveries of new vehicles in the US dropped 4.7 per cent...
