U.S. NEW MOTOR VEHICLE REGISTRATIONS The U.S. automobile industry has remained resilient throughout the last five years following the 2009 federal government bailout. With an uptick in consumer demand for new vehicles, total registrations of U.S. new vehicles rose 6.5 percent in 2014 to 16.7 million, compared with 15.7 million in 2013. This increase reverses some of the heavy losses experienced in 2009 (-21.9 percent) and 2008 (-17.7 percent), which led to the lowest new vehicle registrations in over a decade. Last year, new passenger car registrations grew 1.6 percent, with import vehicles maintaining their dominance in this category, accounting for 68.9 percent of total sales. Light trucks grew 10.8 percent in 2014, achieving the best new registration level in six years. Foreign nameplates as a percent of total light truck registrations have continued an increasing trend since 2011. The nascent recovery was not limited to light vehicles. Registrations of new medium (GVW 4-6) and heavy duty (GVW 7-8) vehicles increased by 14.2 percent to 434,000 units in 2014. NOTE: Presentation of this data has been updated to be registrations-based, providing a more verifiable record of vehicles in the fleet, from published state and federal sources. For consistency, corresponding historical data have likewise been updated to registrations-criteria. U .S .
