US auto sales in 2019 were down 1.4% to 1.6% compared to 2018. That was before COVID-19 hit the United States and destroyed the US auto industry (among other things) for several months. So, when looking at 2021 US auto sales, I find it more interesting to compare to 2019 than 2020. Nonetheless, in this […]

Nissan (& Infiniti), Jaguar Land Rover, and Volkswagen (including Audi, Porsche, etc.) announced the change with press releases.
