Chip shortage keeps driving up auto prices, cutting sales
By TOM KRISHER AP Auto Writer
DETROIT (AP) — The global semiconductor shortage is still vexing the auto industry. U.S. new vehicle sales were expected to tumble more than 20% in the second quarter compared with a year ago. Yet demand still outstripped supply from April through June, even with $5 per gallon gasoline, high inflation and rising interest rates. The low supply has raised prices to record levels, knocking many consumers out of the new-vehicle market. General Motors reported a 15% sales drop due largely to the chip shortage. Toyota sales are down 19% for the first half of the year and fell 18% in June. Stellantis posted a 16% decline.
