“Last month’s sales were up 17% for domestics, 8% for European brands, and up 15% for Asian makes,” said Cox Senior Manager of Economic and Industry Insights Chris Frey.
Toyota led large automakers in July’s CPO sales bump, and Honda experienced the biggest year-over-year percentage jump. Meanwhile, Chevrolet’s fell the most of any big brand.
