European car sales swerve lower
AFP, Paris :
European car sales swerved lower again in October, industry data showed Wednesday, as countries began to tighten restrictions on businesses to battle the spread of coronavirus infections.
The drop came after the major manufacturing sector posted the first increase of the year in September, the European Automobile Manufacturers Association (ACEA) said.
“Registrations of new cars declined by 7.8 percent to 953,615 units last month, as several European governments reimposed restrictions to battle a second wave of the coronavirus,” said the trade group.
