US auto sales in July likely increased 2.4% year-over-year, but 2016 sales will not match 2015, according to JD Power and LMC Automotive. LMC now expects 17.4 million new vehicles will be sold in 2016, down 0.1% compared to last year, a first annual decline since 2009. On average, the forecasters said the four biggest automakers will see only slight changes in sales in 2016, with General Motors' sales expected to be down 1.3%; Ford down 1%; Toyota down 2.7%; and Fiat Chrysler up 1%.
