More NorthAm auto shutdowns as inventories dip

摘要

More North American automotive plant shutdowns are looming as inventories continued to fall. A lack of semiconductors means that estimates for how many vehicles will be lost in 2021 have risen to 1.16mn, according to AutoForecast Solutions. The number of vehicles at-risk has grown by more than 30,000 vehicles to 386,000 from the previous estimate a week ago.
