A dreary April in Detroit - Import sales rise, but the Detroit 3 plunge 16.8%

摘要

Same old, same old. That was the story of car and light-truck sales in April, which means it was another terrible month for the auto industry. Sales totaled 1,248,549, down 6.8 percent from last year. It was the sixth consecutive year-to-year monthly decline and the 10th in the past 11 months. April's total was the poorest for that month since April 1995. April's seasonally adjusted annual rate skidded to 14.7 million.
