In what typically turns out to be the slowest month of the year for new vehicle sales, January's results cause no great excitement in the follow-up to momentous year end figures. In terms of setting the tone, however, January 2014 will be meaningful, particularly as monthly December auto sales figures in the United States were lackluster.
Overall, January numbers were worse than lackluster, as total sales fell by more than 32,000 units compared with the first month of 2013. January, with 8.5% of 2013's days, generated 6.7% of the U.S. auto industry's volume last year.
Chrysler's early release displayed a dreadful decline in Dodge Dart sales, and a 19% drop in total Dodge sales. This was easily made up for by the Jeep and Ram increases, and the Chrysler Group was up 8% overall.
Ford Motor Company, the maker of America's top-selling brand, Ford, said weather wraked havoc on January sales in certain regions. Lincoln, however, was not tarnished by southerly-blowing white stuff, as the brand managed its best January sales since 2010.
All four General Motors brands reported year-over-year U.S. sales declines. At Chevrolet alone, sales slid by more than 18,000 units as only the Corvette and Cruze improved upon their January 2013 tally. Toyota brand sales fell as Yaris, Corolla, Prius, Camry, and Avalon volume all decreased year-over-year.
