Since many new car dealerships feel a strong competition in online e-commerce, used car dealers now fear of car vending machine. And no, it's not something impossible, it's totally real. And no, you can't shake it to get a free one. An online used car retailer opened its newest "vending machine" last week in Houston, where the gleaming, glass-encased structure sits right off a busy freeway. The eight-storey automated garage- three levels higher than the first version which debuted in Nashville a year ago - holds 30 cars. It dispenses used vehicles in four deliv...
The car sales in November increased only a bit, which isn't a good sign specialists say. Retail sales rose only 0.1 percent in November, after a downwardly-revised 0.6 percent growth in October. Consumers bumped up their purchases at restaurants and furnishers last month. But they also trimmed spending at auto dealers and department stores, limiting the overall advance in retail sales. More Americans had seemed to enter the holiday season poised to shop. The improving job market has pushed unemployment down to 4.6 percent and prompted signs of accelerating wage growth. Over the ...
The US car buyers are showing signs of fatigue, raising concerns over the broader outlook for consumer spending—a key engine of U.S. Growth. Sales of light vehicles in the U.S. have increased for six straight years, touching a record 17.5 million units in 2015, and are potentially on track for another record this year. But sales now appear to have plateaued, leading to a buildup of inventory and a return to discounting—something auto makers swore off when emerging from the recession. Dealership sales, measured in dollars, fell a seasonally adjusted 0.5% in November from ...
Fiat Chrysler dealers will have to wait a bit longer for two highly anticipated big-ticket vehicles: a fully redesigned Ram heavy-duty pickup and a luxury SUV for Jeep, the Grand Wagoneer. It became clear that FCA's Ram brand will not redesign its current heavy-duty pickups onto its new DT pickup platform in 2018 but instead will keep the same body-in-white and refresh the existing DS-based model. Meanwhile, the automaker has placed a hold on its development of the Jeep Grand Wagoneer luxury SUV. The vehicle has been on Jeep's product plan since 2014 and was to boast three r...
Global car sales have a big chance to set another record year. This extends gains to a seventh consecutive annual record and surpasses the previous upcycle which lasted six years. Purchases will be buoyed by improving labour markets at the fastest pace since early 2007 and a bottoming in purchases across emerging markets. Economic growth in developing countries is expected to pick up for the first time since 2010, helping reverse last year's slide in car sales which was driven by sharp contractions in both Russia and Brazil. Low gasoline prices, improving household balance sheet...
