A-CLASS GIVES MERCEDES A STELLAR SEPTEMBER

摘要

For most of this year, we have been saying that monthly falls of a couple of per cent are not too serious. It may seem perverse therefore, to greet a rise of 1.3% in September registrations with a warning that this figure is more worrying. The underlying issue is that September 2018 was a terrible month for car registrations because so many models were in short supply due to the WLTP emissions tests. Comparing September 2019 to September 2017 gives a better perspective on the true situation - registrations were down 19.5%, which is a serious fall in anybody's language.
