CHINDIA Continues to Lead World Auto Industry Out of Slump
Indian sales of cars were up for the third month in a row, being up 4%. Lower interest rates and government stimulus continues to drive growth. Suzuki sales were up 8%, and is the fastest growing brand in India. Consumers are fuel-price sensitive. Trucks and buses were down 11%, while motorcycles were up 12%.
Chinese sales were up 37%, driven by tax breaks to promote smaller cars. China is now the largest new car market in the world.
