SOUTHFIELD, Mich. (Jan. 8, 2016) – According to analysts at IHS (NYSE: IHS), 2015 was characterized as a good year in the mature car markets, though it was largely offset by a very poor year for many of the world’s emerging markets. The net result is estimated to be a sub-par 1.5 percent growth in global auto sales – the slowest pace of growth since 2010 – once all numbers are reported and analyzed.
