According to the Association of European car manufacturers (Acea), registrations of cars in Europe were 1.26 million units in October, an increase of 11.2% compared to figures for the same period of the previous year. This increase, according to the Association, was driven by the positive developments in the large markets on the continent, especially in United Kingdom, Spain and Germany, where registrations increased by 31.6%, a 26.4% and 32.2 per cent, respectively. State aid to the purchase of vehicles have been instrumental in increasing sales in Spain.
