Scrappage scheme boosts new car sales

28/05/2010 - 07:15:20

New car sales for the first five months of this year have surpassed the total for the whole of 2009.

Some 57,898 new cars have been sold so far in 2010 -438 more than total amount sold last year - despite forecasts at the beginning of the year which projected 70,000 sales for the year as a whole.

The Society of the Irish Motor Industry (SIMI) said the trend is partly due to the introduction of the scrappage scheme.

“At the start of this year, we were very cautious about our expectations for 2010," said SIMI Director General Alan Nolan.

"While we knew that scrappage would have the knock on effect of increased sales, we didn’t expect to be hitting the 57,000 mark in May.

"At the beginning of the year we predicted 70,000 new car sales for 2010. Now, we are looking at considerably more.

"Our proposals last year estimated that around 10,000 scrappage scheme cars would be sold, but we also predicted that one of the real benefits of scrappage would be to kick-start the demand for new cars," Mr Nolan added.

"We can clearly see today that this is working."

“Our industry was one of the first hit in the economic downturn. We are also one of the first to see a lift and hopefully this will soon extend across other sectors," Mr Nolan concluded.

Irish economy recovering, says IBEC

Employers' group IBEC has said the weaker euro and stronger than expected consumer demand are helping the Irish economy to recover.

The group said that the recession in Ireland probably ended in the first quarter of this year and that the economy was slowly returning to growth.

In March IBEC forecast GDP would shrink this year by 0.7% - it has now revised that upward to just 0.1%.

Последние статистические данные указывают на то, что рецессия в Ирландии завершилась – впервые за 2 года экономика страны испытала рост. Однако обычных людей улучшение жизни ждет не раньше следующего года, утверждают ведущие ирландские экономисты.
По мнению экономиста Фриендс Фирст Джима Пауэра, чьи слова приводит «Айриш Индепендент», окончание рецессии – это «статистическая иллюзия», вызванная ростом продаж химических и фармацевтических товаров. Их производят обосновавшиеся в Ирландии мультинациональные корпорации, и в реальной экономике страны они большой роли не играют. А значит, безработица будет продолжать расти, тысячи компаний окажутся на грани банкротства, а правительство будет вынуждено вводить новые налоги.
По мнению экономиста, настоящего возврата к росту можно ждать не ранее 2011 года. «Мы на пути к восстановлению, но этот путь будет медленным и тяжелым», - сказал Паэур.
А фирма Ернст&Ёунг предсказала ирландской экономике бурный рост в 2011 году. В отчете компании сказано, что ВВП вырастет на 2,8%. Таким образом, в будущем году Ирландия станет одной из самых быстро развивающихся стран Европы.
