Thomas Staertzel, Chairman of the committee has commented: “As stated in the June press-release, we experienced this month a slight market downturn year-on-year. In July 2021, 132,640 passenger cars and LCVs were sold which is 6.5% less than the strong July 2020, after the lift of pandemic restrictions. In January-July 2021, 953,760 cars were sold which is still a 28.4% increase in comparison with the same period of previous year. The next months will show further corrections linked to limiting effects of worldwide production cuts following the shortage of electronic components.”
