Car sales dropped by 2.4 percent in Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands in June, when 9,388 units rolled off the lots — or 234 fewer than those sold the same month last year, the United Automobile Importers Group (known as GUIA for its initials in Spanish), announced Wednesday.
The United Automobile Importers Group (known as GUIA for its initials in Spanish), an organization that represents the Puerto Rico automotive industry, recently launched the “Puerto Rico Automotive Industry Report 2012-2013.”
New car sales in Puerto Rico showed a 6.5 percent drop in March, a decline that affected many of the most popular brands, including Toyota, Ford and Chrysler, the United Automobile Importers Group known as GUIA revealed Wednesday.
Auto sales in Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands totaled 8,343 units for the month of October, remaining pretty much flat in comparison to the same month last year, the United Automobile Importers Group known as GUIA announced Thursday.
Auto executives serving the Puerto Rico and U.S. Virgin Island markets agreed Tuesday that the best time to buy a new car and invest in the auto industry is now, as the sector has upheld the momentum begun last year and is on track for improvement in 2012.
