Except for foreign sales, damaged by the current moment of the Argentine economy (main customer of Brazilian vehicles) all estimates are positive. For domestic sales, the forecast is similar to the one reported by Fenabrave, which represents the distribution sector: increase of 11.4% over last year, with 2 million 860 thousand cars, light commercial vehicles, trucks and bus chassis sold. This increase would be higher in the heavy vehicles segment with 15.3% more truck and bus sales, to 88 thousand and 17 thousand units, Exports are the thorn in industry’s side André Barros | andrebarros@autodata.com.br Anfavea figures
