How many vehicles are sold every year?

Are you curious to know how many cars are on the road with you? Wouldn’t that information be of interest?
For car dealers, it’s their very basic knowledge of industry and a planning tool that helps them decide how many cars they will sell individually.
In the United States, that information is called a SAR Report. And that report is predicting that 14 million new cars will be sold in 2012. That is based on vehicle registrations. That number is 2010 was less than 10 million new cars. The number in 2011 has risen and it will continue to rise over the next 12 months.
Car leaderships are busy this year, and at this time of year. People who have had their cars for a long time and really find the need to buy one are flocking to dealerships because that’s where the cars are.
Maybe you have had your car for a long time and want to check out what’s new at the dealerships. You are not alone. Foot traffic as well as online traffic has increased at car dealerships, whose numbers have dropped by nearly 25% overall since many closed in the past few years. So you probably want to make an appointment before you go to the dealer (see previous post on this) if you want to get the most value out of your visit and save yourself time and frustration.
Happy Shopping!
