US Auto Sales Down

For Nissan, Jeep, Toyota, Ford, Chrysler, Dodge, Chevrolet, Honda, Mercedes, Infiniti, Audi, Mini, Alfa Romeo, Fiat, Buick, & Cadillac In 2019

We primarily cover the electric vehicle market here on CleanTechnica.

However, context is important, and that means sometimes looking at the broader automobile market.

Therefore, I collect US auto sales data from almost all automakers on a monthly basis and take a look at their sales trends.

I also split out car/sedan sales data for these automakers since the only mass-market electric vehicle currently on the market is a car (the Tesla Model 3).
