The Accent, wow I had no idea!! Surely the Hyundai advantage programs are really helping with sales. Kia with solid results.
The xD is a giant dud.

Pure nonsense I spoke to a Toyota dealer that told me they have to turn away Tundra customers because they cannot get enough of these trucks to fill the demand for them. The reason is the factory will not produce enough of the trucks. If they would up production they would sell them.
the new tundra is a failure compared to toyota's plans. it's not a 'terrible' truck by any means, but the interior and ride quality are consistently criticized as poor.

Appealing is a subjective quality.
MB offers a wide range of diesels as well as upcoming hybrids so, no Audi's aren't more efficient either.
Can somebody please tell me why in the world our governments gave Chryco one single dime? They should be put out of their misery as it is very clear that nobody wants their vehicles.
They're good little cars. I picked one up for one of my businesses and it has been a fantastic car (for an econo box, 4 door, 4 banger...lol).

I love mine to death. 57,000 miles on mine and not a single hiccup. They don't seem to age or wear at all. I know a courier who has over 340,000 miles on his '07 Yaris (believe it or not) and only one repair has been needed (new alternator). He has original brakes, clutch, everything...

TOKYO, July 6 (Reuters) - Toyota Motor Corp's (7203.T) Prius hybrid was Japan's best-selling car in June while Honda Motor Co's (7267.T) rival Insight ranked fourth, helping the two hybrid leaders dominate the list of top-selling models.
Sales of the Prius, which was remodelled in mid-May, jumped 258 percent to 22,292 units from the year-earlier month, data from the Japan Automobile Dealers Association showed.

The ES and TL are respectively the volume cars for Lexus, Acura. The TL is actually the volume vehicle, its best selling (RX is for Lexus). Both cars had 70k a year sales goals, which they usually meet. Clearly we have a recession so those sales goals will not be met.
I and others have stated the new TL is a sales failure and below is the proof to show it. The 3 year older ES 350 is spanking the brand new TL in sales. Both are equally priced as well from 34k-45k.

Great and surprising information.
When the 2010 ES comes out this fall it will be it's 4th model year. It's due for a refresh, no one know how extensive itwill be, so it will be interesting to see what it does for sales.
Maybe TL sales will have improved by then?
