UK car industry affected by attack of credit crunch
After the drastic decline of twenty one percent in the car sales, the UK car industry faces a heavy shakeup. It has been recognized as the phase in the past seventeen years of the history of commercial vehicles and new car registrations.
The car makers were already warned regarding this eventual episode, which would turn out to be one of the worst economical phases faced the industry. There was a stupendous drop in the market with 88,995 units this September.
This happens to be the fifth drop in the ongoing new cars sales. Thus, the manufactures are trying their best to recover their losses with the continuous decline. Around twenty three percent decrease has been noticed in the sale of super minis which includes Corsa and other family cars like Golf faced a steep decline of more than twenty three percent. One the other hand, BM3-, 5- have witnessed a fall of nineteen percent. Sales of off road vehicles like Land Rover Freelander and Mercedes have been drastically down by more than forty percent. On the other hand, the production of Land Rover, Ford, Jaguar and Toyota has already suffered production loss.
The Chief UK Economist from Global Insight, Howard Archer opined that this tremendous decline in car sales is very disappointing and alarming because September used to be one of the most profit making months for the car industry. During this month only changes in the number plate used to happen.
It is supposed that other companies included in the very supply chain might fill in, taking into consideration the major downturn faced by the car industry.
