JD Power, GlobalData cut 2026 global new light-vehicle sales outlook by 600,000 cars, vans from 91.7 million (-0.4%, 2025: 91.9 million) to 91.1 million (-1.1%). Ongoing conflict in Middle East is one factor driving these declines, as another month has passed without resolution, continuing to create downstream effects on energy prices, GDP growth and consumer confidence, even in regions with limited direct exposure to region. In addition, sales in China remain weak as slow implementation of new subsidy scheme has led further reductions to our forecast, Krafft (GlobalData) said
