As an added benefit of your Association membership, GNYADA provides you with monthly issues of New York Auto Outlook . New York Auto Outlook is a report about both new and used vehicle sales in the twelve-county New York Metro Area. The report also provides clear indicators of individual brand performance and forecasts of new vehicle sales in area markets. March New York Auto Outlook: According to the March Auto Outlook, the Metro Area used vehicle market got off to a good start in 2015, with used registrations increas- ing 5.1% in January of this year ver- sus a year earlier. Extremely cold weather held back the new vehicle market in January, as new retail registrations declined slightly versus a year earlier. Indicators are predicting a small increase in February, with more

increases likely to come later this spring.

Additional Highlights of the March’s New York Auto Outlook include: Monthly registrations increased an estimated 7% in February of 2015 versus a year earlier. The New York Metro market increased 2.9% in new vehicle sales during the first two months of this year. SUV market share rose to 48.7% thru February of this year.
