April Auto Sales Lowlights

Shouldn’t that be highlights, you ask?  No, it most certainly should not, when you notice that every single major automaker suffered a drop in sales in April.  There’s no “best” and “worst” here.  Just Bad, worse, and worst.  So, who did just “bad” in April?  Let’s take a look-see.

Bad Brands

  • Subaru –6.69% : All things considered, Subaru has weathered this storm pretty well so far.
  • Audi –9.31% :
  • Hyundai –13.56%

Worse Brands

  • Kia –14.83%
  • Volkswagen –16.1%
  • Honda –24.51%

Worst of the worst

  • Suzuki –73.7% : Are you serious?  Worse than Hummer?
  • Hummer –61%
  • Saturn –56%

When looking at companies, Chrysler did the worst – down 48% vs last year, and Honda nabbed the “top” spot, with a 25% drop.

April was absolutely brutal, in every sense of the word.  No one escaped the carnage, though some did spectacularly terrible.  Suzuki – seriously worse than Hummer?  Unbelievable.
