As you know, not all automakers report sales on a monthly basis anymore. We will get a complete picture of the first quarter of 2023 after the close of March business.
Industry analysts who estimated sales of all manufacturers rose 9.5% last month, as compared to February 2022. Total sales were estimated to be 928,000 in February 2023.
Of the car companies that report sales monthly, all except Honda and Toyota saw increases from February 2022. As I continue to tell you on the CarPro Radio Show, Honda and Toyota continue to struggle with supply chain shortages.
