Dear Colleague,

The latest new passenger car registration figures showed an 11.3% increase in July. This was a great improvement from previous months, demonstrating the pent-up demand that built up while dealerships were closed. The light commercial vehicle market also experienced an increase in sales with a rise of 7.1%. Please find more information in the news.

The NFDA Electric Vehicle Working Group will return on 10 September, where we will be updating members on the latest information regarding Government policies affecting electric vehicles, issues in the market and the Electric Vehicle Approved (EVA) scheme. To register for the group or for more information, please contact nfda@rmif.co.uk.

The NFDA Dealer Attitude Survey Summer 2020 deadline has now passed. We would like to thank all those who took the time to complete the survey. The survey results will be published in the first part of September.

NFDA is your trade association and the voice of automotive retailers. If you require any assistance, please do not hesitate to contact our member helpline on 01788 538303.

Sue Robinson, NFDA Director
