AS THE CANADIAN AUTO INDUSTRY CONTINUES TO
recover from the COVID-19 pandemic and global shortage
of semiconductors, the " glory years " of
high margins and lineups for vehicles
might be in the rearview mirror.
Sam Fiorani, vice-president of global
vehicle forecasting at
U.S.-based AutoForecast
Solutions, said Canadian
inventory continues to
grow, and North American
vehicle production is nearing
a " record pace. "
SALES
ANALYSIS
Q3 STATS
P54
Third-quarter sales were up 22 per
cent to 351,162 vehicles among automakers
that reported as of press time (JLR,
Maserati, Mercedes-Benz and VW Group
brands will report later in the month),
according to the Automotive News
Research & Data Center in Detroit.
The total doesn't include Ford Canada,
which reports only annual figures.
But more vehicles on lots means
a return to normal business practices,
something dealers such as Michael
Wyant haven't dealt with for years.
powered by:
Wyant:
Regarding the
" glory years, "
there were
high margins,
low interest
and low
advertising.
" That was
the business
in 2021 and
2022. "
