Market balance USA 9 months 2022
- After two very weak years in 2020 and 2021, the US automotive market (PC+LUV) is catching up in the second half of 2022, albeit only very modestly.
- For example, the third quarter of 2022 shows a sales volume of 3.5 million units, compared to 3.4 million units in 2021 and 3.9 million units in 2020.
- In 2020, the U.S. market recorded a volume of 14.5 million vehicles, with 6.4 million units in the first half of the year and 8.1 million units in the second half. The first half of the year had been severely affected by the Covid 19 crisis (closure of factories and car dealerships), which is why the first half of 2020 was so poor. As for the second half, sales missed in the first half were made up.
- In 2021, the U.S. market recorded a volume of 15.1 million vehicles, with 8.3 million units in the first half of the year and 6.8 million units in the second half, as this period was affected by the semiconductor crisis, which caused a delay in the production and delivery of models. The second half of 2021 was therefore much lower in volume terms than the second half of 2020.
- The first half of 2022 continued the pace of the second half of 2021 (6.8 million sales).
- In the first nine months of 2022, the U.S. market is down 12.7% compared to the first nine months of 2021. 93% of these are internal combustion engine vehicles or HEVs, 6% BEVs and 1% PHEVs.
