September 2011 Auto Sales Figures and Data
Raw Data (From Autonews.com):
Notes:
–For September, the auto industry was up 10%.
–Saab is currently selling the 9-4x alone due to supply issues and manufacturing shutdowns.
–Nissan is booming due to Honda, Toyota, and Subaru supply issues. Nissan is on its way to becoming America’s #3 brand unless its Japanese competitors resolve supply issues caused by the earthquake and tsunami.
–Volvo is booming due to brisk sales of the new S60.
–Dodge, Chrysler, and Jeep continue to perform well.
–Mitsubishi, at one point expected to leave the US market entirely, has posted gains due to the well-received Outlander Sport.
–Volkswagen’s repositioning is paying off as US manufacturing and major price cuts (and moves downmarket) have boosted sales significantly.
–At less than 3000 units, Fiat has failed to meet its expected volume of 6000 due to marketing issues.
America’s Top 20:
Notes:
–Thanks to aggressive lease deals, cash incentives, and availability, Altimas are selling very well, serving as an alternative for those who cannot buy Hondas and Toyotas due to supply issues.
–Jetta sales are booming due to price cuts made possible by US manufacturing and cheaper components and interiors.
–The Chrysler 200 is pummeling its predecessor, the Sebring.
–Chevy Cruze is a home run for GM.
