February 2015 Auto Sales: Winners and Losers

Winner: Lexus +22.0 Percent

In spite of its sensible reputation and somewhat dour image Lexus’ year-over-year sales grew by 22 percent last month. Dealers fell just five vehicles short of selling 30,000 units in February. For the first two months of 2015 their performance is even better. They’ve moved more than 46,000 cars and trucks, which represents a 26.4 percent gain compared to the same time period last year.
