Overview of the Automotive Sales Forecasts

Covering all light vehicles sold in the world’s major markets, the Automotive Sales Forecasts provide historical data and 7-year forecasts in both annual and quarterly timeslices. The forecasts are based on a thorough examination of the macro-economic environment and outlook (based on the forecasts of the renowned Oxford Economics), demographics, fiscal and regulatory influences and model cycle plans. Each major vehicle manufacturer’s current market position is analysed and its market share, both overall and segment-by-segment, as well as the outlook for its existing and future models are discussed.

Through our strategic alliance with J.D. Power and Associates, our analysis can leverage that company’s unparalleled access to Voice of the Customer research. Moreover for North America, the forecasts also utilise J.D. Power’s unique PIN data based on real time dealer transactions.

Published quarterly in electronic format, the Automotive Sales Forecasts are invaluable tools for vehicle manufacturers as well as for the financial community and vehicle logistics and transportation companies wishing to understand the dynamics of global market demand.
