S&P Global Mobility: September US auto sales reflect pressures of current market conditions; projection of 1.3 million units

Retrieved on: 
Tuesday, September 26, 2023

SOUTHFIELD, Mich., Sept. 26, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- US light vehicle sales in September should remain relatively unchanged from the month-prior result, according to S&P Global Mobility, which projects sales volume of 1.30 million units for the month. For optimists, that auto sales levels remain steady in wake of still palpable "affordability" issues of rising interest rates and slow-to-decelerate new vehicle pricing levels are a good sign. For pessimists, the daily selling rate metric in September will reflect continued deceleration from the monthly readings realized from March-July.

Key Points: 
  • For pessimists, the daily selling rate metric in September will reflect continued deceleration from the monthly readings realized from March-July.
  • For certain, the outlook for the remainder of the 2023 remains even cloudier given the UAW strike against GM, Ford and Stellantis.
  • While sales impacts for September are limited, the production disruptions caused by the strike will have ramifications for potential sales levels moving through the fourth quarter.
  • "Light vehicle sales in September are projected to reflect an unspectacular SAAR of 15.2 million units, reflective of the current market conditions."
