U.S. Light Vehicle Sales : 2020


Sales were down 14% for the year, not too bad at all. The custom has been to voluntarily release monthly figures, but the tide has swung quickly to the point that it's almost the default to do it in quarterly releases instead. Hopefully, it won't escalate beyond that, bad as it already is. Mercedes Benz and JLR are particularly tardy at releasing data.

Surprisingly few makes could manage an increase (green) so I've added pale blue to show those that did manage to improve their share at least. There's not much change although Nissan's traditional drive for volume has now been superseded with a focus on better margins. Volvo went up three places and Infiniti down by the same number.
