Could the U.S. auto industry return to the days of light-vehicle sales of 16 million a year. Industry leaders have made clear they aren't building their businesses based on that heyday and have stripped out overheads accordingly. But it could if consumers change their behavior, reports the Wall Street Journal's "Ahead of the Tape." Friday's reports on February car sales are likely to show a rise to 15.5 million vehicles on an annualized basis, according to Edmunds.com, among the best figures of the recovery. Sales today are being boosted by car loans that cost about half of what they did in 2007 and by rising credit availability. The market may return to 16 million a year one way or another. The U.S. car fleet now totals around 245 million and is, on average, a record 11 years old. It may keep aging as a result of thrift and better vehicle quality, but the pace at which cars are scrapped eventually must rise.Reference Link |
