Shot of the tail of the car market in December is going to mark a sales growth of 12.5% and then closes – even a puff – in a positive or 2019. Because the last month in Italy were delivered 140.075 cars, bringing the final budget of the year to a growth of +0.3% with a total volume of sales equal to 1.916.320 against 1.910.701 2018.
The excellent result of the December following the ups and downs of the last few months: the decline in August (-3,29%), the sharp recovery in September (+12,71%), a good increase in October (+6,44%), and the discrete-November (+2,05%).
And the FCA? In the month of December, the registrations of the Group have been to 31,000, a decrease of 2,31% compared to the same month last year. So, Fiat Chrysler Automobiles has closed in 2019, with 452 thousand recordings, a decrease of 9,52% compared to more than 532.000, 2018. But there are also positive elements: the Spear that is in the year just ended increased sales of 21% compared to the end of 2018, achieving a market share of 3.1%, while with 81.500 registrations in 2019, Jeep confirmed as the leader among SUVS and the arrival of the new version of Compass and the design of plug-in Hybrid, both of Compass, both of the Renegade in the coming months, will allow the brand to continue the excellent results obtained in recent years. And the Fiat Panda is also the protagonist in 2019 and confirms its stable leadership in the ranking of the segment To be in the absolute, without regard to the Stelvio, which remains the best-selling car in its segment both in the year and again in December, with a share of 19.3%. And then in the top ten absolute of the cars most sold in a month are five models in the FCA: in the first place Panda, as well as Lancia Ypsilon, the Fiat 500X and the Jeep Compass and Renegade.
But back to the general market: “In a context of strong, persistent economic uncertainty and political, internal and international, and with the introduction in 2020, the new eu limits on emissions of CO 2 and related heavy sanctions – said Michele Crisci, President of the unrae managing, the Association of foreign car manufacturers – stands out the lack of strategy on the part of the national policy that supports organically and neatly into the chain of the Italian automotive ”. “ In a year that opens with different difficulty-à-doubts on the horizon for the auto industry – continues the President – unrae managing to be hoped that, after the long and pointless political discussion on the taxation of car in mixed use, the government decides to finally convene and effectively enable the long-promised” tables on demand, supply, and infrastructure”.
As noted by the Anfia, however, a double-digit growth not seen since last September, while the analysis for motorisation confirms the trend: “yet Another drop in sales for the diesel, which in December showed a decline in registrations of 14,91%, while the gasoline continues to grow vigorously: +31,01% – explain the Dataforce – and the registrations of lpg are growing (+9% year on year), while those of cars with methane have increased by 6%. The hybrid grew vigorously (77 percentage points), passing from 5.740 to December 2018 to 10.163 December 2019. The plug-in hybrid, that is, those encouraged by the recent introduction of the ecobonus, showed a positive result: +280%, equal to 505 units sold in more. In total in 2019 were registered in Italy 11.692 electric cars (+100%) and 117.618 hybrid (+35,23%)”.
the key to The interpretation of the dealers is however negative: “The growth of December – says Adolfo De Stefani Cosentino, President of Federauto, the Federation of auto dealers – is to be attributed both to the effect the calendar for the month has been able to enjoy a working day more than in December 2018, both to the effect the CO2 has led to anticipate, especially through the channel auto-registrations and rentals, the sales of vehicles with higher levels of carbon dioxide considered, that from this year becomes stringent (95%) compliance with the limit of 95 g/km on the registered of each manufacturer”.
the Same critical analysis on the part of the Centro Studi Promotor: “could Not be expected – explain – that a boost to the recovery of at least a part of the heavy decline in our market has been compared to the pre-crisis level of 2007 (estimated at the end of 2019 in -23,1%) could be recovered in the course of the year that it is closed due to factors related to internal dynamics of the auto industry. And this is mainly because in 2019, the sales of passenger cars have had to still deal with the effects of the new approval system WLTP, with the demonization of diesel and also with the expectation of materialisation of the perspective of the electric car”.
